  • Question and Answer Session: COVID-19 Recovery - The Next Steps for London (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 04 March 2021
    Jennette Arnold OBE AM: The idea of Assembly Member Qureshi being at the pulse of London is so amazing. We are so thrilled to have him among us. My question is for Councillor Danny Thorpe. It is about the need for a robust safety net for possibly millions of Londoners who are desperate to avoid being trapped in poverty and can see little support coming their way to relieve their hardship. You spoke earlier about a new generation in poverty, and I wondered if you could give us a couple of examples of how the missions of the Recovery Board...

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 04 March 2021
    Nicky Gavron AM: I just wanted to come in with a couple of quick supplementary questions to follow what Assembly Member Cooper was saying.

It is going to be a very important tool.

    • Meeting date: 05 September 2019
    Jennette Arnold OBE AM (Chair): Yes, thank you. Can I start my question to Sir Peter? It is going back to a Plenary Assembly meeting that we had on 2 November 2017. The issue was raised there about the timeline which you are working to in order to return the planning powers that you either see as being on loan or borrowed from the Olympic boroughs of Hackney, Waltham Forest, Newham and Tower Hamlets. I have met with local councillors representing wards in all of these boroughs and spoken to some senior representatives and a group of residents, and they...
  • Supplementary [11]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 05 September 2019
    Nicky Gavron AM: Thank you. I would really appreciate it if you could try to make the answer succinct because we are quite short of time. I wanted to focus on play and recreation facilities for children and young people, because one of the key promises of the Olympics was the legacy for children and young people. If I start by just trying to be clear about the numbers of children that are on the Queen Elizabeth Park in the residential development, the Local Plan review evidence base 2017 says there will be 10,000 households and 4,000 children. Is that...
