  • Outer London Commission's Recommendations (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 18 May 2011
    Thank you. Ms Shawcross has the floor for a point of personal explanation because I am sure she will want to tell us she is not an outrider.

  • Climate Change Action Plan and London's Buildings (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Do you know, I am flabbergasted by this, Deputy Mayor. You have just told us that these low-energy bulbs are in fact a transitional thing, because LED bulbs are going to come in which are going to be efficient, but at the same time your publicity has told us that these light bulbs are going to have a very long life. Clearly it is quite pointless that they should have a long life if something more permanent is going to come along. It is a bit like somebody trying to sell me a Betamax video recorder! The whole thing is...

    One final thing on this; I believe the whole thing is completely ludicrous. This refers to DIY Planet Repairs. Whenever we switch on any of the computers in this building a big thing comes up with an exclamation mark saying `DIY Planet Repairs'; utterly meaningless. I can well understand why there is an exclamation mark there; this has cost the Council Tax payers of London more than £1.25 million! Can you point to any `DIY Planet Repair' which the Mayor and this campaign have actually achieved?

    Of the 30,000 a year that you are predicting?

    Mr Watts, that is not actually true. In the Mayor's press release ' which I suppose in this case is Nicky's press release ' a 63% take-up was predicted, which is four million. Your figure bears no relationship to the press release and the fact that you only made available this tiny number of light bulbs suggests that there was never any truth in the matter at all.

  • Climate Change Action Plan and London's Buildings (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    It's very interested to hear you say that all of this is supposed to encourage people to take up these things. The total number of people who have actually taken up the insulation grants so far is barely 3,000 homes of the 30,000. The thing you principally have been trumpeting to make Londoners aware of how they can cut carbon issues has related to the exchange of light bulbs. Now the Mayor in his press release predicted that there was going to be a 60% take up of London's population of that; that is around four million people. I wonder...

  • Mayor's Report

    • Reference: 2002/0790
    • Question by: Trevor Phillips
    • Meeting date: 20 November 2002
    Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. This morning because of the Fire Service dispute, I intend to use my powers under Standing Order 2.40 first to take an item of urgent business, which is a statement from the Chair of LFEPA and to vary the order of business to take that first. I imagine the Mayor, when he arrives, will also want to say something on this matter, as part of his update. What I intend to do is to allow 25 minutes of questions on the Mayor's update during which period questions will also be addressed to the Chair of...

  • Mayor's Report (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 20 November 2002
    Would the Chair of LFEPA accept that from the Liberal Democrats side we have been supportive of the basic position that more money is possible and is justified but only in return for modernised working practices? And if so, will she accept that too few people in the public, in the media, actually understand the extent of the current practices and what is required? Will she agree to make it clearer exactly what changes we are asking for in terms of working practices? Because most people simply do not understand how inflexible they are. As far as the Mayor is...

  • Mayor's Report (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 20 November 2002
    I read in the newspapers that the Bain Report terms of reference were not actually agreed by the union and that they were very unhappy with the terms of the report. Now, the result of the report is absolutely dependent upon the terms that you set at the beginning. Is it true that the union was unhappy with it?

  • Mayor's Report (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 20 November 2002
    Did the FBU have sight of the terms of reference before the review actually started or not?
