  • Update since September 2017 plenary (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 05 July 2018
    David Kurten AM: It was very good to hear your answers about Brexit earlier, the positivity you had about OPDC going forward and that as we approach Brexit day people are still wanting to invest in London. Obviously, you are concerned about skills. Michael, you half‑answered my question talking about how you are going to be partnering up with West London College and there will be 150 spaces there, but I would be very interested to hear any more details about the opportunities that you have to provide apprenticeships to British kids and kids from London who could gain the...

  • Update since September 2017 plenary (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 05 July 2018
    Nicky Gavron AM: When we were discussing at the Plenary last September [2017], we were discussing safeguarding land for industry, for logistics, for services. I want to ask you now how your approach to safeguarding that land in Park Royal and Old Oak has changed or developed.

  • Update since September 2017 plenary (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Andrew Dismore
    • Meeting date: 05 July 2018
    Andrew Dismore AM: Thank you, Chairman. The Mayor’s vision for Old Oak includes a thriving new ‘high street’, in quotes. Given the pressure on retail and casual dining industries, especially because of rising rent and rates, what is your plan for creating a sustainable high street with the right mix of shops, businesses and leisure?

    • Question by: Peter Whittle
    • Meeting date: 05 July 2018
    Peter Whittle AM: Good morning. Like my colleague David, I really would like to commend you for, first of all, the straightforwardness of your answers and the sense of possibility amongst them and the enthusiasm, which it is infectious. You are not being waylaid by issues such as Brexit or, indeed, HS2 for that matter. That was another one. I am very glad to hear that that would not be fatal.

  • Update since September 2017 plenary (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Florence Eshalomi MP
    • Meeting date: 05 July 2018
    Florence Eshalomi AM: I just wanted to come on to transport. In line with my colleague Assembly Member Dismore talking about some of the high street stores, it will be really great once everything is developed to make sure people are walking and cycling there. The OPDC Public Realm, Walking and Cycling Strategy published last April [2017] talked about a vision to provide an “accessible urban environment for Old Oak and Park Royal with high-quality public realm”. In terms of that Strategy, there are a number of recommendations on there. How do you feel about the recommendations and what progress...

    • Question by: Onkar Sahota
    • Meeting date: 05 July 2018
    Dr Onkar Sahota AM: How will you ensure that there is enough social infrastructure to support the regeneration plans you have? How will you make sure that that is all in place?

  • Tenure split of 'affordable homes' in the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation area (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 05 July 2018
    Nicky Gavron AM: I wanted to ask something that was prompted by a meeting of the Regeneration Committee yesterday, where we looked at the Royal Albert Docks and were told that infrastructure there is going to be funded from an uplift in the business rates. That is quite a considerable amount when it is projected forward and of course there is a lot of new development coming. It made me wonder. Is this mechanism available to you?

  • Tenure split of 'affordable homes' in the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation area (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 05 July 2018
    Navin Shah AM: Again, going back to the meeting at Old Oak Common last night, tall buildings and densities featured very strongly. As a starting point, do you have a definition of what height constitutes a ‘tall’ building?

  • Maximising the OPDC’s benefit to London (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 05 July 2018
    Caroline Russell AM: Thank you. I am picking up on the potential benefits to London and want to go back to Healthy Streets. Last time you were here, last September, we had a conversation about the 0.2 parking spaces per residential unit and I raised the issue that there are two different ways of measuring access to transport. There are Public Transport Accessibility Level (PTAL) measurements, and I also raised that Camden are combining those with Access to Opportunities and Services (ATOS), which gives a more nuanced and Healthy Streets-friendly approach. Now, I notice that you are still consulting -...
