  • 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?

  • Proposal to Designate a Mayoral Development Area (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 17 December 2014
    Nicky Gavron AM: Eddie, I would like to ask some questions about some of the planning aspects of this, however first of all I want to ask you about the legislative process, which I am extremely ignorant on. An order has to be laid before Parliament? When does that have to happen and what is in it?

  • Climate Change Action Plan and London's Buildings

    • Reference: 2008/0001
    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    How does the Mayor intend to meet his environmental and housing objectives?

  • Climate Change Action Plan and London's Buildings (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Do you not find that they are absolutely grotesque to look at? I am a great one for doing what can be done but I also believe that the best way to encourage people to do the right thing is to make it possible for them to do the right thing. Is it not going to be absolutely vital that we get these light bulbs designed in a way that is acceptable to people because the light is appalling and they look absolutely grotesque?

  • Climate Change Action Plan and London's Buildings (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Given that the Assembly's Environment Committee investigation into the barriers that ordinary Londoners faced in terms of greening their homes showed that one of the biggest barriers that Londoners faced, even though they were enthusiastic about wanting to do something, was the lack of practical advice and information, does it not suggest that the comparatively low take-up we have seen so far suggests we need a more aggressive marketing campaign that reaches Londoners rather than less emphasis on marketing and getting the message out?

  • Climate Change Action Plan and London's Buildings (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Thank you very much. You have told us lots about your good intentions and your principles and so on - and indeed about 90% of what you have said was about your intentions - but not what you have actually achieved. That really is rather like the expenditure that there has been on these programmes. Is it good value for money that, of the £2.7 million that has been spent on the Green Homes programme, £2.2 million of that has been spent on publicity and only £300,000 on actual insulation grant? Would you not say that the whole thing is...

  • Climate Change Action Plan and London's Buildings (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Would you also agree that, rather than simply just expecting people to come to you for advice and information, we need to see more of what has been happening in Lewisham where council officers have been going directly to peoples' own homes on a door-to-door basis and offering that advice directly?
