    • Reference: 2005/2350
    • Question by: Geoff Pope
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2005
    Are you aware that under the terms of Part 7 of Schedule 2 to the Town & Country (General Permitted Development) Order 1995 (GPDO), Network Rail, as a statutory undertaker, has the right to carry out certain development on its operational land in connection with the movement of traffic by rail without having to make a planning application? Are you further aware that the large Industrial development - a train washing facility - erected by Southern Rail on the sidings at Streatham Hill without planning permission abuts many residential properties in Sternhold Avenue causing a major environmental impact on the...
  • LTI Increased Profits and their Monopoly

    • Reference: 2005/2352
    • Question by: Graham Tope
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2005
    How do you defend a situation where your Public Carriage Office (quite rightly) requires black cab operators to comply with new emission regulations, but imposes its cab specifications in such a way that operators can only buy vehicles manufactured by LTI? Is it acceptable that LTI should be increasing their profits on the back of the monopoly you have fostered, and when are other manufacturers going to be allowed to compete?

    How do you think that leaving pavements on TLRN roads icy and dangerous promotes the professed aims of your Transport Strategy to promote sustainable alternative forms of transport such as walking?
  • Proposals for 465 bus route, Richmond

    • Reference: 2005/2356
    • Question by: Geoff Pope
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2005
    How do you justify comments from TfL officers contained in a letter from the GLA dated 5 October 2005 to officers at the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames claiming that the Linden Homes site in Sandy Lane is "within acceptable walking distance" of the 281 and 285 bus stops in Kingston Road? With the loss of the 465 bus under London Buses' current proposals, there would be no service on a Sunday and Kingston Road bus stops are more than 700 metres away, over a footbridge. The development contains a residential home for the elderly and the visitors may...

Is it your policy that bus routes should not be subsidised by private developers?

    In an interview with Somethingjewish.co.uk published on November 17th this year you said, when asked if you were planning to go to any of the events publicised in the Jewish culture guide to London that the GLA supported: "I go to nothing that we do. I have three functions in life - one is doing the day job, two is looking after the kids and three is sleeping, and that's about all I do. Once a year I go to the first ten minutes of whatever is the Mayor's film festival." How do you equate this remark with your recent...
