  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    David Kurten AM: Good morning, everybody. My first question would go to David Bellamy. I think you would be the person to answer this, but if you are not you can pass it on. My question is, what remuneration will the members of the London Transition Board and London Recovery Board be receiving for their service?

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: My questions are to start off with to John O’Brien. I want to ask about support for businesses in London, with a particular focus on the restaurant industry. According to data from the Office for National Statistics, as of July last year there were nearly 16,000 restaurants in London employing around 325,000 people. Clearly, the sector has been hit very hard by COVID-19. Data showed in March, before the pandemic had fully hit, that 71% more food and accommodation businesses closed this March than they had in the previous March. John, I wonder if you could...

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Leonie Cooper
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Léonie Cooper AM: My first question is to David Bellamy and it is about the balance between lives and livelihoods. Many politicians and commentators have portrayed the journey out of lockdown as a trade-off between the economy and health and between lives and livelihoods. Do you agree that this is a false distinction and that there cannot really be a full economic recovery without the public being confident that going about daily life is safe?

  • Question and Answer Session: London Development Agency Settlement (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2011
    Good. That will certainly start to clear things up. On the home insulation and sustainability work that you mentioned, the implementation plan for the final version of the Climate Change and Energy Strategy in May 2011, will this take account of the new settlement as it is, rather than simply the projected wish list that you were working to previously?

  • Question and Answer Session: London Development Agency Settlement (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2011
    Sir Simon, it is the job of the Labour Party to say it is all dreadful, being the rays of sunshine that they are, but in the context of this current climate this looks like a bit of a windfall. Can you tell me how the Mayor might be spending the unexpected amounts of money, especially --

    • Meeting date: 16 March 2011
    Do you expect those strands to be fully funded as originally envisaged or will there have to be some cutbacks?

  • Question and Answer Session: London Development Agency Settlement (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2011
    Yes, Chair. I am impressed the Mayor has created another functional body: Bacon for London! I have three areas of questioning - very briefly. The first is you are trying to clutch some sort of victory out of the jaws of defeat, I would suggest. The Government effectively abolished both the budgets and the entities of the Regional Development Agencies (RDAs) last year, while accepting that City Hall is going to have some economic regeneration capacity. I pay tribute to you personally because I know you have been scrambling in the background to try to persuade it that it made...
