  • Question and Answer Session: Refugees in London (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2023
    Thank you, Chair. Good morning, panel. I address my first question to Deputy Mayor Tom Copley. The Mayor first announced in February that he had received £126 million from the Government’s Local Authority Housing Fund to provide homes for refugees and that this funding would be used to provide 600 affordable homes, mainly for Ukrainian and Afghans fleeing conflict. How many of these homes have been provided so far?
  • Question and Answer Session: Refugees in London (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2023
    Lord Bailey of Paddington AM: Thank you, Chair. This is for Enver. Earlier on in the conversation, Enver, we talked about asylum seekers’ rights to work and the length of time and people wanted to have it shortened. You said for a length of time, but you did not give a length of time. What to you, would be workable, ideal, something around that region?
  • Question and Answer Session: London Legacy Development Corporation (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2023
    Shaun Bailey AM: Good morning to both of our guests. Can I start with you, Lord Hendy. On 7 March [2023] you announced a consultation on reducing the size of LLDC from December 2024. It was also confirmed that LLDC would maintain its status with a reconstituted board and a governance structure and a return of planning powers to the constituent boroughs. What were the objectives behind these changes?

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Shaun Bailey AM: Morning to our guests. Can I address my question to the Mayor? It has been reported in a number of places in the press that a supposed whistle-blower has talked about a metal box that could explode and cause the doors on the new Elizabeth line trains to fly off. Are you aware of these claims and how accurate are they?

  • COVID-19 Vaccination Delivery in London (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 04 February 2021
    Shaun Bailey AM: Good morning, Minister, it is great to see you and thank you for your hard work. The Government has done a lot of work around combatting the spread of fake news, bad information, particularly in ethnic communities. Of course, in my own community I have seen a lot of very fake news being spread around, telling people not to take the vaccine and that it will impact their health negatively. You have done some good work on it. My question is: what more can be done, what other steps does the Government have planned and how can...
  • COVID-19 Vaccination Delivery in London (Supplementary) [21]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 04 February 2021
    Shaun Bailey AM: Thank you, Chair. I will talk to Dr Tom. I really want to follow up on Assembly Member Devenish’s question around what is being done to look at where this misinformation is coming from. There are certain communities, certainly my own, that actually feel like we are under attack. It feels like a very deliberate, very concerted effort to put this misinformation out into our community and I wonder if there is any work being done. I take your comment that it might be slightly outside of your purview, but can you go back and ask for...

    Shaun Bailey AM: Thank you, Chair. Good morning, all. Can I address my first question to Deputy Mayor Agrawal, please? When restrictions are easing and are being pulled back, what work is being done to prepare London to reopen, by the Mayor’s Office and by your office as well, please?
  • Economic Recovery in London (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 23 July 2020
    Shaun Bailey AM: Good morning to all our guests. I would just like to finish this point about the cultural industry in London, because of course we have a visitor economy, and this is basically what those people are visiting: our huge variety of culture and the scale of the culture. What kind of intervention are we looking for in monetary terms? If we are approaching the Government and asking for more money, can we give that a figure? Can we give it a ballpark? What kind of monies are we talking about? Why don’t I start with Philip and...
  • Economic Recovery in London (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 23 July 2020
    Shaun Bailey AM: Thank you, Chair. I wanted to go back and cover this ground of additional support for particular groups. What does that look like for the recovery programme? Who gets to decide which groups we are going to support more and why? We talked a lot about the BAME community and the impact of COVID on my community, but also white working-class men have had very poor health outcomes from it. Who is identifying which groups are going to be supported and what is the criteria around that? This is to Councillor Georgia and maybe to Philip Graham...
