  • Affordable Ticket Guarantees (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 14 November 2012
    This is not in any way to diminish what I think is your spectacular achievement, but it is just one story. My family got tickets for the Paralympics. We were unable to get any tickets for sessions at the Games that we wanted to go to. At the very last minute, at a pretty hefty price, we were able to go to the O2 to see the first Saturday - absolutely amazing men's gymnastics - but it was half empty. Why was that? This was the morning. It might have filled up in the afternoon, but in the morning.

    You talked about levers and about your optimism about new flexibility and new innovative ways of delivering housing in the future. I have seen somewhere that tax incremental financing (TIF) is at last being considered. Could you shed any light on this? What form of TIF would it be and how would you use it to help social housing?
  • Staffing Appointments (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2006
    Are you going to appoint a member of staff or even, indeed, more, to co-ordinate the engagement with young people because they need very special facilitation? I can understand you might not have something yet but I think it is very necessary.
