    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 04 March 2021
    What are the next steps and priorities for London's recovery bodies, and what should recovery from COVID-19 look like?
  • Question and Answer Session: COVID-19 Recovery - The Next Steps for London (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Alison Moore
    • Meeting date: 04 March 2021
    Dr Alison Moore AM: I would like to move on to transport in London’s recovery. My first question is for Matthew Jaffa. How will the lifting of restrictions and subsequent economy recovery impact on transport in London and vice versa?
  • COVID-19 Vaccination Delivery in London (Supplementary) [12]

    • Question by: Navin Shah and David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 04 February 2021
    Navin Shah AM (Chair): Thank you very much. Minister Zahawi, I know this morning already you had a very busy schedule. I have heard you on Leading Britain's Conversation (LBC), we have seen you on Sky [Network] Television (TV) and you are here this morning with us. I cannot thank you enough. May I just on behalf of the Assembly if you can spare another minute, ask you a question of reassurance that we are seeking on behalf of Londoners? That is: is London now receiving its fair share of COVID‑19 vaccinations and can we be confident that it will...
  • COVID-19 Vaccination Delivery in London (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 04 February 2021
    Navin Shah AM (Chair): Right. My question is on vaccination hesitancy in BAME communities and to start with, I would like to address my question to Dr Coffey. According to the Royal Society for Public Health (RSPH), only 57% of BAME people would be willing to take a COVID‑19 vaccine in comparison with 79% of white people. In particular, confidence is reportedly lowest amongst black communities, with some reports of 72% not willing to take the vaccine. The spread of the misinformation and conspiracy theories via social media networks can be identified as one of the causes of this. What...
  • COVID-19 Vaccination Delivery in London (Supplementary) [16]

    • Question by: Alison Moore
    • Meeting date: 04 February 2021
    Dr Alison Moore AM: My first question is for Tom Coffey. Phase 1 of the current COVID-19 vaccination programme covers care home residents, for example, and those over 50. Phase 2 covers the rest of the population and the JCVI has said, and I quote, “Vaccination of those at risk of exposure to SARS-CoV-2 due to their occupation could also be a priority in the next phase”. My first question is: what discussions, if any, has the Mayor had with the Government over whether to prioritise key workers’ COVID-19 vaccination programme and, if so, when should they receive their vaccination?

  • London and Covid-19 Restrictions (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 12 January 2021
    Navin Shah AM: Thank you very much. My question is to Professor Fenton. We saw in the first wave that BAME Londoners were disproportionately affected by COVID-19. In fact, the figures were very damning and not acceptable in any situation. What lessons have we learned since the first wave and what has been implemented as a result to improve the situation, which needs to be done speedily and dramatically?
  • London and Covid-19 Restrictions (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Alison Moore
    • Meeting date: 12 January 2021
    Dr Alison Moore AM: Thank you very much, Chair. My first question is to Fiona Twycross, if I may, but before I ask that could I reiterate the thanks to all the guests and their colleagues for the work they are doing? Fiona, how will you ensure that Londoners living in poverty or on the verge of poverty are supported and receive the essentials during this second wave and the more infectious strain, particularly in light of the challenge around self-isolation during lockdown?

  • Economic Recovery in London (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Alison Moore
    • Meeting date: 23 July 2020
    Dr Alison Moore AM: Thank you, Chair. I would like to move on to the future of workspace. To John Dickie and Jace Tyrrell, is home-working here to stay? If so, what impact will this and a shift away from central London office spaces have on London’s economy? What does the Mayor need to do to support that central London economy?
