  • Question and Answer Session: Refugees in London (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2023
    Nick Rogers AM: Thank you, Chair. Good morning, panel. I have some questions around English language skills, so I imagine they will probably sit best with Tunde Olayinka. Through the Adult Education Budget (AEB), the GLA funds English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) provision for around 40,000 people in London at a cost of approximately £40 million. Do you know how many refugees are amongst that 40,000?
  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 06 July 2023
    Nick Rogers AM: Thank you, Chair. Good morning, Mr Mayor. Good morning, Commissioner. Mr Mayor, yesterday we heard [Mr] Justice Swift tell the High Court that he could make no promises that he would have reached a judgment in the ULEZ expansion judicial review before August, which suggests that he has found the evidence worthy of very serious consideration. That would potentially mean, if the judgment was made on 4 August [2023], that would be just four weeks until the planned expansion date. There are many Londoners, many businesses, many charities, who are waiting on the judgment before making a...
  • Question & Answer Session: London's Long-Term Infrastructure Needs (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 08 June 2023
    Nick Rogers AM: Thank you, Chair. Question for Phil, following on from the discussion we were having with Assembly Members Garratt and Cooper. In your work, you said you were working on the local energy plan with authorities in West London, so with that work and more broadly, are you looking at all at large scale battery storage, as a potential solution to build resilience into the grid?
  • Question and Answer Session: Policing (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 01 December 2022
    Nick Rogers AM: Thank you, Chair, and the first question is to the Mayor. The MPS Estates Strategy was apparently handed to your office in Q1 of 2021/22. What are the reasons behind the delay in publishing it, and when do you expect to have that Strategy published?
  • Question and Answer Session: Proposed Revision to the Mayor of London's Transport Strategy (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 17 November 2022
    Nick Rogers AM: Thank you, Chair. Good afternoon, Mr Mayor; my questions are for you. I take issue with a couple of points that the Deputy Mayor made: he described this revision as a process point and a small addendum, where it is in fact neither of those things. What you are asking the Assembly to do today is to give our seal of approval to some very controversial policies that would have a negative financial impact on thousands of Londoners, and small businesses, across the city. I am sure everyone’s inboxes have been the same as mine, full of...
  • Adult Education Budget (Supplementary) [19]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2022
    Nick Rogers AM: Thank you, Chair. Jules, I just want to pick up on some of the discussion we were having earlier around health and that sector. My understanding is that health public services and care enrolments have been increasing year on year but, given the high vacancy rates in the sector, do you track how many people who achieve qualifications then go on to actually get jobs in that sector?
  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Nick Rogers AM: Good morning, Mr Mayor. Good morning, Commissioner. You talked about the Elizabeth line, and it is an absolutely fantastic piece of British engineering. I have really enjoyed travelling on it. It will make a huge difference, not just to London, but to the southeast and beyond. While we are all extremely happy that it is open, we cannot ignore the sometimes tortured journey that it took to get to that point. Do we have a clear picture, Mr Mayor, of the financial impact overall in terms of lost revenue and additional capital spending of the delay to...
  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [24]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Nick Rogers AM: Mr Mayor, on page 98 of your Manifesto you promised to deliver a strategy for the suburbs. Could you please write to me outlining the progress you have made with that to date?
  • Question and Answer Session: London's Economic Recovery and Business (Supplementary) [12]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 03 March 2022
    Nicholas Rogers AM: Deputy Mayor, you said in response to my colleague Assembly Member Fortune, referencing ULEZ expansion, that businesses will take a hit. Now, businesses will have heard you say that, and I am reminded of a discussion I had with a business in Kew Village which faced a bill of tens of thousands of pounds to upgrade their fleet in preparation for ULEZ. For them, this was an existential threat to their business. What would your message be to them?
  • London Fire Brigade and delivery for Londoners (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2022
    Nick Rogers AM : Thank you, Chair. Just briefly on the subject of the museum, I would highly recommend the little museum that the firefighters at New Malden Station have developed in their mess room. It is quite the collection they have there. To build on some of the points that Assembly Member Hall was making around collocation, Commissioner, you mentioned that you are engaged in regular discussions on this issue. You mentioned Purley and was it Hornchurch? Which was the other one you mentioned, sorry?
