  • GLA group apprenticeships (4)

    • Reference: 2011/3732
    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2011
    Thank you for your answer to my question number 3386 / 2011, which showed that a majority of your apprenticeships went to people aged 25 and over in 2009/10, and less than a quarter to 16-18 year olds last year. With 20% of young English people unemployed, will you ensure that a greater number of apprenticeships made available in the GLA group go to young people aged under 25, and particularly to people aged 16-18, in future years?
  • Dust suppressants and monitoring sites

    • Reference: 2011/3733
    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2011
    On the matter of dust suppressants to tackle localised air pollution, you told me in answer to my question 3371/2011 that "no research has been undertaken to investigate if this targeted action in London's most polluted locations will create a significant issue for understanding the macro picture of air quality across London." On what evidence, therefore, did you state in answer to question 3679/2011, that "TfL's use of dust suppressants to reduce PM10 at London's worst pollution locations does not give the impression that pollution is lower than it is"?
  • AirText

    • Reference: 2011/3734
    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2011
    In your answer to my question 3373/2011 you admit that you have an aspirational target to sign up a further 250,000 participants to AirText, but you do nothing to monitor progress, or to check if additional resources are needed to market this service to vulnerable Londoners. How many people do you estimate would benefit from this service during the Olympic year and can you outline your plans to market AirText to Londoners and visitors in 2012?
  • Low emission taxi fund

    • Reference: 2011/3735
    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2011
    In your answer to my question 3369/2011 you state that the Low Emission Taxi Fund was "always dependent on TfL seeking a sponsorship deal with the private sector". However, you failed to cite any evidence that you made this clear to either journalists or the Assembly prior to October this year. Can you please provide the evidence that you did so?
  • London Plan policies on air pollution (1)

    • Reference: 2011/3736
    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2011
    Will you refuse a planning application within an air quality action area if it will lead to an increase in pollution from traffic and if there are no 'best available' and 'viable technological solutions' which would mitigate the increase in pollution?
  • London Plan policies on air pollution (2)

    • Reference: 2011/3737
    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2011
    Which of the current planning applications noted in your 36th report to the London Assembly include an air quality assessment?
