  • Chairman's Question to Guests (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 06 February 2015

It does not even take the target that is given in his own evidence. We have a housing crisis. Why are you content to move forward with a Plan that does not meet London’s housing need?

    Scandinavian countries have poverty rates which are close to zero, so it obviously is eminently preventable. Would you like to comment on that?
