  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [36]

    • Question by: Peter Hulme Cross
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    My question follows on from what Tony Arbour and Bob Blackman were saying. You said that you have interviewed existing staff but you have not interviewed staff who no longer work for the organisation, one of whom, Maxine Jones, also made some allegations. There were two whistleblowers: Brenda Stern and Maxine Jones. You have said, 'The review has found that this allegation is incorrect'. In order to reach that conclusion it would seem to me that you would have to talk to both of those two people.

  • Freedom of Information

    • Reference: 2007/0272-1
    • Question by: Peter Hulme Cross
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    Are you satisfied with TfL's handling of Freedom of Information matters? Correspondence between my constituent and TfL (TFL reference CCFOI 1189) about public opinion surveys (regarding Congestion Charging and Greenwich) appears to show a very slow process.

  • Abandoned Cooler tube proposals (Supplementary) [3]

    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    Absolutely, so it is going to go ahead? This idea that it had been abandoned is not true?

  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [3]

    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Mr Higgins, you just mentioned the site. You said it was 'highly contaminated'. Those were your words. Now, in marked contrast to your brochure of photographs here, I have got some photographs which actually show the contractors at work. They are digging up, if that is the right phrase, a whole lot of dust which is blowing over the surrounding countryside and the surrounding residential areas. If that site is highly contaminated, don't you think that enormous efforts should be made to damp down the dust and make sure that the dust does not go onto surrounding areas?

    Are you aware that there is a suspicion that there might be radioactive waste on the site? There were two instances I have come across. One was dumped in 1959 and another was dumped in 1953 and in both instances they say that the waste was possibly radioactive.

    • Question by: Peter Hulme Cross
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    I attended the meeting in Hackney Wick about a couple of weeks ago when people were actually complaining about the dust that was flying around, particularly over the Clays Lane Estate and in that general area. People actually said, 'Having inhaled this dust I felt a real sore throat and burning eyes and burning lips,' and people were coming up to me after the meeting saying, 'Can you do anything about this?' I felt that there was a real concern. Now I know that there has been quite a lot of contamination on that site. I have documents here which...

    Alright, and your contractors, those people who are actually working on the site, driving these vehicles and what have you, are they properly protected, using properly protective clothing and all the rest?
