  • Proposal to Designate a Mayoral Development Area (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 17 December 2014
    Tom Copley AM: I wanted to return to the issue of affordable housing, because given the shortage of homes that we have this is something that is of particular interest to Londoners. Onkar Sahota has already called for a 50% target. You said that no borough at any point, you thought, had he ever managed to reach 50%, but surely it is better to aim high and fall short of that rather than aiming for 30% or 35% and ending up with 20% or 25%?
  • Capital Investment (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    Tom Copley (AM): The report outlines the need to shift from, in terms of housing, subsidising rents towards subsidising capital instead. Could you tell us how you anticipate this could be done, particularly in terms of timescales and also the necessary transitional measures, which are mentioned in the report?
