  • Question & Answer Session: London's Long-Term Infrastructure Needs (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Hina Bokhari
    • Meeting date: 08 June 2023
    Hina Bokhari AM: Thank you, Chair. I do want to touch on something that Assembly Member Polanski was discussing earlier about flooding, but I want to link it to pollution through sewage. I am sure Caroline [Sheridan] and Charlie [Wood] would like to come in at this point, but I want to start off with Sir John. I know that you were talking about specific projects not always being part of your approach, but the baseline report that you produced in 2021 said serious pollution incidents from water and sewage are unacceptably high. Then your report in 2022 about reducing...

  • Question and Answer Session: London's Economic Recovery and Business (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Hina Bokhari
    • Meeting date: 03 March 2022
    Hina Bokhari AM: All my questions will be for the Deputy Mayor for Business. London’s street markets, small businesses and high streets are a vital part of the fabric of London’s culture and economy. They showcase the diversity of our city and provide a place that we can all meet, integrate and do business. We must do all we can to support them and to help them thrive. Last month [February 2022], the Mayor announced a £10 million budget to attract more tourists - as you were mentioning before - back into the capital, which includes a domestic and international...

  • Question and Answer Session: Functional Bodies - Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Hina Bokhari
    • Meeting date: 11 November 2021
    Hina Bokhari AM: I am going to talk about flooding. There are recent issues that I am sure you are aware of that have happened in London. If you were to examine the OPDC website, the most recent information on policies to deal with flooding go back to 2015. Can you provide an update on the development of infrastructure and capacity to deal with flood risk, especially to deal with surface and storm water runoff?

  • Question and Answer Session: Functional Bodies - London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Hina Bokhari
    • Meeting date: 11 November 2021
    Hina Bokhari AM: I am going to talk about the topical and serious issue of sewage. In 2019, raw sewage flowed from a Thames Water overflow pipe into the wetlands, running into the canal and the River Lea on the Olympic Park a staggering 91 times over 1,026 hours. There are now reports of raw sewage once again pouring into the Park’s water network, flowing from the recent heavy rains. Not only does this hit the reputation of the Park as a welcoming, clean and attractive place, but the wetlands particularly were intended to be an eco-friendly area for animal...

  • Housing and Planning (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Hina Bokhari
    • Meeting date: 01 July 2021
    Hina Bokhari AM: Shared ownership has been a key part of London’s housing and planning model for the last two decades. Today I want to ask questions about how it is working for ordinary Londoners. I will start by asking Deputy Mayor Jules Pipe about planning for shared ownership homes in mixed developments. There were widespread reports recently of residents enjoying the world’s first swimming pool suspended between two buildings at the Embassy Gardens development in Wandsworth. However, the benefits of this facility are not equal as the shared owners in the building are not allowed to access it. This...

  • Congestion Charge

    • Reference: 2008/0775
    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 12 March 2008
    Given that you promised that the £5 Congestion Charge would remain unchanged and then increased it to £8, what promises are you making about the £25 charge on Band G vehicles for the future?
