• Meeting date: 12 January 2021

Andrew Boff AM: Professor Fenton, on I think 3 March [2020], the Mayor of London said that there is no risk of people catching coronavirus while travelling on buses or trains in the capital. Did you give him that advice?

David Kurten AM: Thank you, Chair. I would like to ask Dr Fenton. We heard from the Chair and you earlier about admissions to hospitals with COVID being the highest since the start of the declared pandemic in March 2020. How do total hospital admissions now, this January, compare to last January and other winter seasons before this year?

Caroline Russell AM: Thank you, Chair, and thank you, Martin, for that really clear description of what is happening in our hospitals and to the people working in those hospitals. I want to talk about the vaccination of frontline workers. I do realise that vaccination rollout is in early stages and that we will not know for a few months whether vaccination has any effect on reducing transmission, but yesterday the Government released guidance that said phase two of vaccination may include targeted vaccination of those at high risk of exposure and/or those delivering key public services. This week we...

Navin Shah AM: Thank you very much. My question is to Professor Fenton. We saw in the first wave that BAME Londoners were disproportionately affected by COVID-19. In fact, the figures were very damning and not acceptable in any situation. What lessons have we learned since the first wave and what has been implemented as a result to improve the situation, which needs to be done speedily and dramatically?

I note that RAF Northolt is about to undergo a £45 million renovation - without local consultation - which could pave the way for it to become a fully-fledged regional commercial airport. Despite a cross party coalition of MPs, AMs and 3,000 people in West London demanding answers on the MoD's intentions at Northolt, there is still no sign that they are willing to hold a proper consultation. What representations has the Mayor made to the Secretary of State for Defence to encourage him to hold a meaningful consultation with local residents?

Dee Doocey (Chair): We are now moving on to the session on the Mayoral Development Corporation (MDC). Can I start off the session by asking you, Simon, please can you explain the Mayor's proposals to create a MDC for the Olympic Park area?

Good. That will certainly start to clear things up. On the home insulation and sustainability work that you mentioned, the implementation plan for the final version of the Climate Change and Energy Strategy in May 2011, will this take account of the new settlement as it is, rather than simply the projected wish list that you were working to previously?

Sir Simon, it is the job of the Labour Party to say it is all dreadful, being the rays of sunshine that they are, but in the context of this current climate this looks like a bit of a windfall. Can you tell me how the Mayor might be spending the unexpected amounts of money, especially --
