  • Gender Pay Gaps - the LLDC and the wider built environment industry

    • Reference: 2016/4799
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2016
    The persistence of a gender pay gap within the built environment industries is particularly acute. As the Mayor's recent gender audit revealed, although women form 65.5% of the LLDC's workforce, the pay gap within that functional body is a huge 35%. How can the Mayor work through his agencies and with London's construction, property and design sectors to increase female representation at the top of these industries crucial to our city's growth?

    In the face of the accelerated release of industrial land under your predecessor, how can the Mayor encourage innovation in the design of mixed use to maximise flexible and affordable industrial space and minimise any impact on new residential neighbours?

    I welcome your release of the gender pay audit within the GLA. Would the Mayor consider adopting a Gender Mainstreaming approach as has Vienna to reduce gender based inequality, particularly with regard to spatial planning?

    Despite the culture where BAME staff are afraid to come forward, 68 staff members came to employment tribunals and Met lost just three of those cases. Did the Met win other 65? How many were settled and what does this suggest?
  • Violence Against Women and Girls

    • Reference: 2016/4933
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2016
    London Assembly's Police and Crime Committee's report shows violence against women and girls have been increasing in London for the last four years. How does the Mayor plan to deal with this matter so that recommendations of the committee are taken on board to ensure confidence is maintained and service improvements are made to meet the demand?
  • TfL Take Over Of Suburban Rail Services

    • Reference: 2016/4934
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2016
    You have announced your desire for TfL to take over suburban rail services on a number of routes in the next few years, but so far the list has not included Chiltern Line suburban services between London Marylebone and West Ruislip. These are currently the worst in London - typically only hourly, with two stations closed all weekend and one served only during rush hours. The people in this area need and deserve better - will you therefore please add this route to your list for future TfL takeover?

    • Reference: 2016/4935
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2016
    Land ownership issue does not relate to Network Rail & Chiltern, the land in question to improve accessibility is under LB Harrow control. Will you be able to ask TfL help to help bring Harrow Council on board to improve accessibility to the station?
  • Improving Sudbury Hill Harrow Station Accessibility (2)

    • Reference: 2016/4936
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2016
    Can the Urban Realm Scheme be extended in scope to include improving the station's accessibility, in view of the benefits this would bring - which are fully in line with the Scheme's aims and objectives? Why is any reference to Harrow Council missing in respect of the Urban Realm scheme?
  • Improving Sudbury Hill Harrow Station Accessibility (3)

    • Reference: 2016/4937
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2016
    Reference was made in one of your responses on this matter to 'current discussions between Network Rail and Chiltern' about improving accessibility at the station - could you provide further details of these discussions, or give me a contact to enable me to take up this matter direct?
  • HGV Safety

    • Reference: 2016/4938
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 14 December 2016
    I welcome your plans to introduce 'star rating' for HGV safety leading to a ban in London of the most dangerous lorries by 2020. However, as urged by cycling safety campaigners, isn't there strong merit in bringing forwarded the ban immediately rather than waiting till 2020?
