    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    I have a couple of questions and I will start with Manny [Lewis]. You spoke about having achieved over 800 training courses to date in construction. Are you monitoring in terms of diversity ethnicity and location? If you are, can you share that information so that we can be assured that the contract that you have made with the local community and with Londoners that they will be accessing these jobs, especially in the construction industry, is being fulfilled? Second, can you tell me any more about the construction site which I have been championing to get established within Leyton...

  • Tendering for contracts (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2005

    Can I stay with tendering and contracts?

  • Recent changes at the LDA (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 17 March 2004
    Can I just go back to the area of questioning that my colleague touched on about the LDA's support of London's black and minority ethnic communities? Firstly, would you agree with me that sometimes the LDA can be seen to be defensive about the support of this key community? I would like to say to you that there is absolutely no need to be defensive, because it is, if you like, linked to your answer to the last question. These are communities finding themselves in need, but at the same time, they have the skills and the city has the...
