  • Lead off question - Delays to Crossrail (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 06 September 2018
    Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Thank you for that. Will the decision to delay the opening until autumn next year [2019] ‑ it would be great to find out which month in autumn ‑ mean further delay in the opening of the other sections and the final full opening of the line in December 2019?
  • Lead off question - Delays to Crossrail (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Florence Eshalomi MP
    • Meeting date: 06 September 2018
    Florence Eshalomi AM: Simon, is there anything you want to add to that?
  • Lead off question - Delays to Crossrail (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 06 September 2018
    David Kurten AM: Let us come back to the technical aspects. It seems the main problems are getting the three different signalling infrastructures to talk to each other. If you had an extension from Abbey Wood to Ebbsfleet then you would need Crossrail to go onto Southeastern track, which might be a fourth signalling structure. Would it not be? You are shaking your heads.
  • Mayor's Report (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 18 November 2006
    Thank you for your verbal report. No doubt, there will be some follow-up from others who are on the MPA about clarifications for your conversations with the Home Secretary, and the West London Tram will be brought up later on in subsequent questions. The thing I wanted to do was actually just congratulate GLA Events and Media team for doing a very good event on Sunday at Trafalgar Square.
  • Freedom Pass Restrictions (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 18 November 2006
    I mentioned about the hospital because in times of illness, that is something that stays with people, because of all the other factors, but there are other spin-offs as well. Somebody told me recently that when you look at elders, they are not able to use the holiday schemes that are on offer, because many of those--
  • London Planning Survey - ALG (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 18 November 2006
    Do you know that is a bit rich, really, coming from you, saying that things are being dealt with for party political reasons. Many people would say that the London Plan and your amendment is driving forward a political agenda; for example, your policy relating to affordable housing. That is a political matter. In the opening statement which you made this morning, you talked about your casual attitude to events being rather more casual than, how shall I put it, more formal parts of Government. The truth of the matter is -
  • Use of Statistics (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Damian Hockney
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    The problem is when the Chair of the Federation is saying what he says, which is so seriously strong when he says that it is being reported it is far below what really happens, underplayed for political reasons, you can play with statistics in that sense and the public does not feel that we have gotten on top of it. I think that independent statistics surely are the answer.
  • Transport Safer Neighbourhood Teams (2) (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Graham Tope
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    I take the point, wholly, that the train operating companies should be paying for their policing. Historically they do not. I do not think the public is going to be much impressed by this turf war.
  • Use of Statistics (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    It was suggested to me that this had been requested by TfL in order to collect figures on the congestion charge and people's journey times and choices.
  • Costs of Policing Heathrow (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    Thank you for that answer. I freely admit this is a semi-planted question. The question is not planted but I received a briefing from the police several months ago precisely as part of the strategy which I think the Authority supports of seeking to reclaim funding for policing at London City Airport, and I quite strongly support that, it is a very profitable enterprise. As I understand it the figures are that currently policing at Heathrow costs roughly £48 million a year, of which we recover £26 million, and we want to increase that to £35 million. From the public...
