  • Flooding Action Plan

    • Reference: 2015/3751
    • Question by: Steve O'Connell
    • Meeting date: 18 November 2015
    What changes do you anticipate to the London Plan or other planning guidance as a result of your new action plan to help tackle flooding risks in London?

  • Starter Homes

    • Reference: 2015/3301
    • Question by: Steve O'Connell
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2015
    How will you be taking forward the Government's recent announcement to enable the delivery of Starter Homes in London?

  • Sutton Transport Improvements

    • Reference: 2015/0402
    • Question by: Steve O'Connell
    • Meeting date: 21 January 2015
    In December you visited The Institute of Cancer Research in Belmont, where you made clear that you strongly supported the plans to expand to become the second biggest campus of its kind in the world. What effect will these plans have on the business case for the Sutton Tram Extension?

  • London Development Agency Funding of Organisations

    • Reference: 2008/0006
    • Question by: Sally Hamwee
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    A number of times the phrase is used that you found 'no evidence'. It is difficult to ask you to prove a negative but I think it would be helpful to have assurances about the thoroughness of the review. Could you tell me about what interviews and discussions there were with staff, with representatives from the projects and so on?

  • Review process of LDA funding

    • Reference: 2008/0007
    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Yes. I would like to know exactly how you carried out your investigation; for example, did you interview the whistleblower, Brenda Stern, as to the allegations which she made and which were repeated in the Evening Standard?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [12]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Understood. Then, quite separately, as you also point out in your report, there is a separate police investigation into the Green Badge Taxi School which you are cooperating with?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Yes, thank you very much, so that is an internal review. Your conclusions in the report, which I have read and which were submitted to the LDA Board, really put it in these terms, do they not, as Mike Tuffrey has said; in a nutshell, of the six you concentrated on, four require further work, three of those specifically involve the police and we do not know whether Brixton Base will involve the police or not because it is too early to say yet; you need to do further work. Is that a fair conclusion?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    So, again, no intervention; the Board did not rewrite it, ask you to pull your punches or whatever?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    But none of the organisations have received grants?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [16]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Therefore if you are looking at questions of the inner workings of organisations you might have funded in the past, you simply do not have the powers to investigate those to the extent that the allegations would suggest you might need to or might want to, or a third party might want to?
