  • Businesses Around OPDC (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 08 March 2017
    Nicky Gavron AM: Victoria, you have given us quite a lot of context with this exchange. I want to go on talking about the industrial site. Park Royal is probably the largest strategic industrial location in the whole of Europe and it is definitely the industrial engine of the London economy and therefore a huge contributor to the UK economy. Everything you are saying about protecting it - and I really welcome what you were saying about the article 4 direction - and strengthening it is really important. You have talked about relocating some of the industries from Old Oak...

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 08 March 2017

  • Tax Devolution (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 24 October 2012
    Nicky Gavron (AM): Picking up on what you were saying earlier about hypothecation and recognising that you are trying to do a very important, long term job which may pay off, in the shorter term, how far is your survey of other cities looking at the ways in which other city governments have been enabled to set charges like congestion charging, or have the powers to set levies and so on, which they can hypothecate? The Mayor has two opportunities in London: CIL and congestion charging, and there could be others like that. Are you going to come up with...
