  • Dissolution of LFEPA (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Fiona Twycross
    • Meeting date: 02 December 2015
    Fiona Twycross AM: I wanted to correct the impression that was given that the way it has been operating at the moment has been simply about opposition Members [on LFEPA] getting at the Mayor. The fact is that the Mayor has insisted on managing by Direction even when there has not been an impasse, including on issues over which there has been cross‑party agreement by LFEPA Members.

  • Dissolution of LFEPA (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 02 December 2015
    Richard Tracey AM: Chairman, probably this is one for you as the politician of the two of you.

    Fiona Twycross AM: We obviously have to make sensible use of resources in the face of cuts. Some of the new technology that could come online is really interesting and will offer exciting possibilities, but do you agree with the Londoner who contacted me yesterday to say that £283,000 for a website rebuild is bordering on scandalous?

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 11 March 2015
    Jennette Arnold OBE AM (Deputy Chair): I have five minutes to talk about skills. Would you agree with me that a highly skilled local population is key to the future success of Olympicopolis ‑‑ Boris Johnson (Chairman, London Legacy Development Corporation): Yes, of course. Jennette Arnold OBE AM (Deputy Chair): ‑‑ and a major driver in attaining the much-talked-about convergence across the Olympic boroughs and wider east London? Boris Johnson (Chairman, London Legacy Development Corporation): Yes. Jennette Arnold OBE AM (Deputy Chair): We heard in February, Mr Mayor, when you and the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced devolution of further...
