    • Reference: 2018/0231
    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2018
    How will the Mayor's 'No one needs to sleep rough in London' campaign and new London Homeless Charities Group contribute to reducing homelessness in the capital?
  • Vision for Old Oak Common (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2017
    Tom Copley AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I wanted to ask you about the levels of affordable housing and specifically the London Affordable [Living] Rent which is the Mayor’s new form of tenure that is going to be benchmarked at social rent levels. Are you going to have a target specifically for London Affordable Rent across the OPDC site?
  • Local Government Asset Sales

    • Reference: 2015/2220
    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 15 July 2015
    Given the Government's proposals to force London's local authorities to sell high value assets, do you think the revenue generated should be hypothecated for building homes in the capital?
  • Housing supply

    • Reference: 2015/0112
    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 21 January 2015
    In your Housing Strategy you outline that you "would like to see new arrangements for prudential borrowing for new housing so that it is not counted as Government debt, which would distinguish it from more mainstream public borrowing, along the lines that apply in much of the rest of Europe". What progress have you made in lobbying the government to implement this change?
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    Is not the truth here that there is no planning? This has mushroomed completely out of control. Until we started asking questions you and the Mayor did not know the volume of it. We are told that since we started asking questions he in particular has been amazed at the volume of travelling going on.
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    One final question. Studying your documents there do not seem to be a vast number of trips being planned, for example, to other Commonwealth countries, with which Britain already has very good relations but could be improved. Is there a particular reason why that is the case?
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    That is not the point I am raising.
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    One of the considerations might be that we have had very clear ones to Cuba, Venezuela etc, which do not strike us as being those areas which would be immediately promoting London as such an important international city. Clearly, that is a priority. Why?
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    What is behind it is I do not believe there is actually any monitoring and tracking.
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    It is just that you are making comments to us like, `It is good to go to New York because tourists spend a huge amount of money in London'. The implication is if the Mayor did not go to New York the tourists would not come to London. What actual value is that adding?
