  • Recent changes at the LDA (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 17 March 2004
    Perhaps to address another part of your presentation, which links to this, you talked about the need for the LDA to have credibility with business, but are there not occasions when business has to have credibility with Londoners and the LDA needs to say that the employment, training and mentoring practices of the private sector in London are short-sighted, are disadvantaging London and, in the end, will disadvantage those businesses? I am being quite strident in pursuing that. Perhaps your Chair should answer that.

    Which other priority is a lesser priority as a consequence of that?

I think, and I think a lot of my colleagues and constituents believe, that that is a really vital one for London and we have not done enough on it yet.
