  • Question and Answer Session: London Development Agency Settlement (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2011
    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 --

    Could you tell me whether or not we will be able to scrutinise the Board itself or will all scrutiny from the Assembly take place through the Mayor?
  • Childcare Targets

    • Reference: 2006/0138-1
    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    Given that there is a target of 1050 new Childcare Spaces (capital funding) between 2005-2008, why does the LDA Corporate Performance Report only include target figures for Childcare Places (i.e. under the Childcare Affordability Programme)?
  • Tendering for contracts (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2005
    My final question is about procurement, which leads neatly on to it. The draft Procurement Principles mention a number of key criteria that have got to be met including a list of things like community benefit, local labour and London's Living Wage, which I know the Mayor in particular is very committed to. Could you just explain why the first contract that you have dished out, the one for under-grounding the power lines, you have not managed to get the contractor to agree to pay the living wage and that, according to the ODA, they have just agreed to pay...
  • Tendering for contracts (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2005
    That is fine. I was surprised that the LCCI told us that 80% of their members employed 10 or less people and that that was the business profile in London as a whole. I think perhaps more needs to be done to make sure that those people are being included because a lot of businesses that employ less than 10 people will not have somebody dedicated to go on the website and to look for all the information. It is not easy to find information. It is quite difficult. Can I just mention targets? Manny (Lewis) mentioned earlier ' and...
  • Tendering for contracts (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2005
    I am very pleased, Marc, that you seem to have taken on board an awful lot of what happened at the committee meeting last week. Although it is certainly true that the LCCI said that it was happy with the information it had got, they were referring to a meeting you had had the night before. Certainly, when Bob Blackman (AM) and I went to see them a couple of weeks ago, they were complaining long and loud to people around the table that they had had no information at all. I am delighted to see that you have picked...
