    • Question by: Brian Coleman

    I do not think Mrs Howlett is suggesting that it did come from you. She is just asking if there is any truth in it?

    • Question by: Brian Coleman
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    In his remarks to the Idaho Statesman, Jack Lemley said that political disputes will make the Olympics come in late and over budget. Is he telling the truth, or is he deliberately trying to mislead?

    In your work with Mark Fisher you stated: "...councillors are ill-qualified to judge complex planning issues and rarely have the professional back-up they need." (p xxxiii) Do you believe this judgement should apply to the Mayor and Assembly members and, if so, what can be done to remedy our lack of qualification? (A New London, 1992) .

    • Question by: Brian Coleman
    • Meeting date: 11 July 2001
    Lord Rogers, you are on a 12-month contract for a fee of, I believe, £130,000. Do you think that is value for money for Londoners?

    • Question by: Brian Coleman
    • Meeting date: 11 July 2001
    I think the problem is the GLA does not think it is worth it but the Mayor thinks it is. It does seem extraordinary. Do you believe in civic duty, Lord Rogers?
