  • London Finance Commission - Implementing recommendations

    • Reference: 2013/0010-1
    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    Given the legislative changes that would be required to devolve some of the more far-reaching revenue raising powers identified in the London Finance Commission's Raising the Capital report, what measures could be implemented more quickly and without recourse to Parliament?
  • 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?
  • Capital Investment (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Fiona Twycross
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    Fiona Twycross (AM): I want to go back to the point about the borrowing cap on local government in relation to borrowing and at a recent meeting of the Assembly's Housing Committee we heard that, although there are only 10,000 new social housing properties currently in the pipeline, if the cap was removed there was scope for building 800,000. I just wondered, obviously that is down to the political decision-making issue as suggested, but how likely do you think it is for the Government to relax or remove the limits on borrowing?

    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    Valerie Shawcross CBE (AM): It is a really excellent piece of work and it gives us a good agenda for the future. Last week the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) made some comments that I think we all know intuitively are true about the importance of transport infrastructure investment for long-term growth. How do you think transport investment decisions would change in this city if we did have much more local control?
  • London Finance Commission - Implementing recommendations (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    Joanne McCartney (AM): I wanted to continue the theme, really, about the transport infrastructure. Jennette and I represent constituents in the Upper Lee Valley who are very excited at the prospect of Crossrail 2. But looking at the length of time it took Crossrail 1 to actually get off the starting blocks, obviously it gives is great concern that this wonderful idea may actually take many years or decades in the making. Did you have a view as to whether the better fiscal autonomy for London as well as that certainty would actually speed up the timescale for these big...
  • London Finance Commission - Implementing recommendations (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    Jennette Arnold OBE (AM): You have touched on the issue of governance, so my question is about that. If the measures outlined in the LFC's report were to be implemented, what, if any, new powers or scrutiny roles do you envisage the London Assembly and/or local government in the capital requiring? You said in February that it was Ed Koch, former Mayor of New York, who played a great role in bringing the development of city mayors to London. Do you envisage a New York City-style of council in future where the 51 members there have sole rights of approval...
