  • 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.

    Is that a priority for the LDA?
  • Recent changes at the LDA (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: John Biggs

    Which other priority is a lesser priority as a consequence of that? What I am trying to get my head around is the extent to which" Obviously in life you have to pursue a lot of relatively easy targets and priorities, but you need to take some challenging ones on now. 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.
  • LDA Agenda (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Eric Ollerenshaw
    • Meeting date: 17 March 2004
    My question is on joined-up government and all these relationships with the ODPM, the DCMS, the DTI, GOL and all the rest of it. Did anybody inform you of the Government's new scheme to move some 80,000 jobs out of London? In a sense, there is a contradiction between the long-term plan that London is going to increase, and the Government actually trying to cut down the increase by moving jobs out of London. Was there any consultation with the LDA on this?

    We all know you can adjust the ward deprivation figures for whichever agenda you want to deliver. Could you tell me how much has been spent in the London Borough of Barnet?

    Mrs Chapman, I believe that in your strategy you have included food and drink and I am concerned about the Covent Garden Market Nine Elms. In that case, would you support the Covent Garden Market Nine Elms' expansion into this business?
