  • LFEPA Cuts and the Safety of Londoners (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 02 December 2015
    Mayor John Biggs AM: Thank you very much for your earlier answers. I obviously have a parochial interest as the Assembly Member for East London. Particularly Newham but also Tower Hamlets have been adversely affected by the closure of fire stations and the loss of appliances. In your current proposals, potentially we lose another three appliances in Poplar, Plaistow and Stratford and a fourth nearby in Shoreditch. Can you tell us what the cumulative impact would be on residents in my constituency in East London and whether there would be more areas that will fall outside the six-minute response time...

I will start by thanking you enormously for the work you have done and for the very thorough way in which you answered the question you were asked, while recognising that there is a significant minority of people who believe it was the wrong question and that there are quite a lot of other people who seek elected office - and maybe occasionally I am a bit like this - and who would like to pretend that the desire...

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 11 March 2015
    John Biggs AM: I am very grateful for your answers to date. You will be aware, though, as you say - and this is a question to the Mayor - that this is a cross-party initiative by and large and you have stepped into the shoes of your illustrious predecessor, who was very clear that the Olympics were but a down payment on the wider regeneration of the area. You are saying quite a lot of things in support of that. I am happy by and large with what has happened in the Park. There are a few problems, which...
