  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [30]

    • Question by: Sally Hamwee
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    The report refers to, I quote, 'Having identified weaknesses in LDA project management and record keeping'. Does that lead you to have concern about other projects? Are you intending to carry out any reviews or audit work on other projects?
  • London Development Agency Funding of Organisations (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Just to clear up the point about when the report was released I think it went to the Board at 9 am or so and the press release came out 3 pm or 4 pm. I could not get the report itself off the LDA website until close to 7 pm on a Friday evening.
  • Legacy Master plan for the Olympic Park (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    The second question is to Manny Lewis. As you know, the Eastway cyclists vacated their site at Eastway after 32 years on the promise that they were going to be given replacement facilities. Now I know you sent out a press release about the cute little newts the other day, but the fact is that you knew about the newts in November 2006 because you were told about them by London Borough of Redbridge, and it seems to me that you have just been dragging your feet. My main concern is that the replacement facilities that you put in place...
  • Skills Legacy (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    My concern is the real deprived communities; the ones that are just not being picked up because nobody knows who they are. The more visits I do the more convinced I become that what is on offer is not really going to help these people and those are the people that we all want to help more than anyone. I wondered if you would consider a couple of things. First of all I really identified a need for some pan-London funding where at the moment you are giving it to boroughs to dish out, which I understand, but there is...
  • Priorities for the Coming Year (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Three years or two years?
  • London City Airport (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Will you go away ask your officers to look at that?
  • London City Airport (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    It could not be a mixed-use site then?
  • London City Airport (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    You have talked about the climate change disbenefits of expansion and current airport use. Have you also looked at the economic benefits of actually using that site for low-carbon industry rather than for airport use and the economic benefits from that?
  • London City Airport (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    The Mayor has previously told the Assembly that London City Airport should be returned to non-airport use after Crossrail is built. Is the LDA actually doing some detailed work now, looking at a post-airport scenario for the land?
  • London City Airport (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Geoff Pope
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    While it is encouraging to hear that fresh moves are afoot to review the master development plan because it does seem to be totally out of kilter with the direction of transport planning, does that mean that the developments in phase one are now totally up for grabs because there is quite a lot of expansion? Is it appropriate that City Airport flights which fly to Paris and Brussels should continue? They seem most inappropriate now we have got a high-speed Eurostar line, which I understand clocked two hours and three minutes to Paris in September.
