  • 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?

    Is this information going to be made available to us, that information which you have just said, 'You can see'?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [20]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    First of all a specific point: there are standard phrases which occur in a number of paragraphs of the review, one that the review has identified weaknesses, in effect, in procedures which are now being addressed and, second, the point is made, I think, on three or four occasions about the way in which the Mayoral advisory role is conducted in respect of programme delivery should be clarified. What specific steps are you taking to carry forward those conclusions?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [22]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    When you say that you are making all of the files available, will you understand our scepticism when earlier this year the Assembly's Economic Development, Culture, Sport and Tourism Committee asked lots of questions about the Bernie Grant Centre and we were originally told that there were only a few sheets of information available but then, when we asked for the matter to be investigated more closely, 40 cartons of papers were made available? It is very difficult for us on that basis to know what precisely is going to be the full information that you hold.

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [26]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    How are you going to conduct this sampling process?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [30]

    • Question by: Sally Hamwee
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    The report refers to, I quote, 'Having identified weaknesses in LDA project management and record keeping'. Does that lead you to have concern about other projects? Are you intending to carry out any reviews or audit work on other projects?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [33]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    The concern that I would have here is that we have very serious concerns and allegations being raised by ' whatever you might say ' the Evening Standard, as being the publication in London, yet you did not approach them for any further evidence that they have made in terms of their allegations to do this internal review.
