• Meeting date: 17 December 2014

Stephen Knight AM: Just one quick point and that is, is it legally possible to spend Section 106 or CIL money outside the boundary of a planning authority?

• Question by: Murad Qureshi

Murad Qureshi AM: Can I raise two or three issues. The first one, Eddie, I am grateful that you mentioned the canals at the outset. It is just unfortunate they do not show up on the maps. I have no doubts that residential developers will be eying those canal sides very eagerly, because I suspect they can enhance the values of the developments by up to 40%. That is the residential side. However, I am more concerned that they are used during the works construction on the site. I think this is going to be a huge development site, over...

• Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
• Meeting date: 17 December 2014

Jenette Arnold OBE (Deputy Chair): I have a couple of questions, one for Sir Eddie, and one for Victoria Hills. Sir Eddie, in your introduction you mentioned that the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) master plan was similar to the blueprint adopted by the LLDC. I know, as one of the three Assembly Members for the area covered by the LLDC, and was heavily involved in the consultation and now I keep a very strong watching brief on what is going on, that many aspects of the LLDC’s vision has changed. For instance, the LLDC plan started...

Richard Tracey AM: Thank you, Mr Chairman. Edward, can I first of all thank you for organising for the letter to Kit Malthouse [AM] about Wormwood Scrubs, which of course has been circulated to all of us. All of us on this side have received emails from many people who certainly were not constituents of ours but had some concerns, so I think it has helped very much to clarify, and I am grateful to Kit for writing to the Mayor about it. First of all though, I was going to say there is a lot of experience in this...

• Question by: Andrew Boff
• Meeting date: 14 November 2012

In September I published a report, Radically Normal, making recommendations for how the plans for the future housing on the Olympic Park can be improved. Will you endorse these recommendations and commit to ensuring that more, larger, high-quality family-sized homes are built to the highest environmental standards?

Will you change your masterplan to ensure that the Olympic Park meets the 'Go Dutch' standards for cycling?

• Question by: Richard Tracey
• Meeting date: 14 November 2012

Richard Tracey (AM): Boris, you have heard the discussion in John Biggs' question about the Stadium and indeed Dennis Hone told us at the Budget and Performance Committee that he believed it would be 2015 or 2016 before the Stadium could reopen. Can I ask you as the Chairman of the LLDC as well as the Mayor, will you set an objective of opening it before that point? I quite agree with John Biggs and the point has been made elsewhere. It would be a bit shameful if we could not reopen it before Rio has completely finished its Olympics.

John Biggs (AM): A very simple question to start which is, in answering Caroline Pidgeon's question, do you have enough money to deliver your promises concerning the physical legacy of the Olympic Park?
