Sakina Sheikh AM: Good morning, Lyn. Good morning, Lord Hendy. It is great to see you both. Lyn, recently you came - it feels like a long time ago now - in November [2022] to the Planning and Regeneration Committee and we had some really interesting conversations about the LLDC and the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC). I just wanted to go back to some of what was talked about and draw out some of the themes. One of the things that you said through the conversation was that displacement of people in regeneration schemes is inevitable...

Susan Hall AM: Thank you. I will be very brief. Lyn, at the December [2022] Budget and Performance [Committee] meeting, I asked you whether you would ask the Mayor to get more involved in the search for a Stadium sponsor. What progress have you made on that?

Susan Hall AM: Thank you. May I say first of all, Sir Mark, thank you for your robust answers to Assembly Member Russell. There is no doubt that politicians do mean well, but it is absolutely vital that we look at things in the round. I really applaud your robust answers. To be fair, Sir Steve House had started to row back, and I am pleased to see that you are saying what you are because figures on both sides of an argument need to be looked at. Thank you for that; I was thrilled to hear that. Mr Mayor...

Sakina Sheikh AM: Thank you, Chair. I want to speak a little bit more about the issue of fraud, building on Assembly Member Garratt’s line of questioning.

Commissioner, I just wanted to ask if there is anything you wanted to expand on in terms of how confident you feel in the MPS’s ability to get a handle on tackling fraud.

Susan Hall AM: T hank you. Mr Mayor, I do not know what is happening. We have been agreeing an awful lot today, which is somewhat unusual; however, I want to bring your attention to something. All of us agree that our police officers are invaluable, as are firefighters, ambulance drivers and so on. Many of them, because of the cost of housing in London, have to come in from outside. Consequently, quite naturally, the Metropolitan Police Federation is incensed that you are going to expand the Ultra-Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) because it would mean that so many officers, who...

Sakina Sheikh AM: It is great to have you here to be reflecting on what has been achieved by the corporations. Myself and my colleagues will be spending the next couple of hours drilling down into some of the details to ensure some of the fantastic things that you have outlined hold tight in their validity, which I am sure they do, but we welcome more detail.I wanted to open something slightly broader and talk about the transition in terms of planning powers. I would like you to outline in as much detail as possible how the LLDC will ensure...
