  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Alison Moore
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Dr Alison Moore AM: Thank you very much, Chair. My question is for Niran Mothada. London’s transport system is critical to the functioning of the city, as we all know. How will your Board marry up the impact that COVID-19 is having on transport, both its finances and how Londoners will move about in the future, with individual and business needs so that London remains open?

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Navin Shah AM: Thank you very much. My question is on mental health and the question is to Niran Mothada. The mental health of Londoners has been hugely impacted by COVID-19. What are the arrangements made for supporting Londoners with mental health issues arising out of the pandemic and how is it going to be dealt with in the new normality in the capital?

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [16]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Murad Qureshi AM: Thank you, Chair. My question on childcare is addressed to Niran Mothada, the Executive Director of Strategy and Communications. Childcare is going to be a huge issue when Londoners return to work and in fact has actually been a huge issue whilst we have been in lockdown, as women have been taking up the bulk of caring duties. How can the Board support parents returning to work either at the office or from home, given that I understand 34% of early years providers are facing closure due to COVID-19, as reported by the Sutton Trust?

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Joanne McCartney AM: My question is to Niran. Looking forward at economic recovery, do you think there is a balance between jobs, in terms of the amount of jobs and job security we can offer, and making sure that companies offer good terms and conditions? Is that something that the Recovery Board has at the forefront of its mind?

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [18]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Nicky Gavron AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I want to add my thanks to the team and the panel in front of us for all the work you are doing. My question is to Niran Mothada. To ensure that we have a real green economic recovery and a just transition, will you be building into the social recovery working group and the economic recovery working group green thinking at the very heart of all the work that it has been doing and is going to do? Also, can you tell me how you are going to translate the principles...

  • Bonfire of Bureaucracy

    • Reference: 2007/0108-1
    • Question by: Damian Hockney
    • Meeting date: 07 November 2007
    How do you intend to fulfill the promise of a bonfire of bureaucracy?

  • Use of Statistics (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    Thank you. Can I turn to another set of statistics which I know that quite a number of your officers are busy out today collecting across London? I myself saw a census point as I came to work and I know other colleagues have seen them as well. We are not due a national census for another two or three years as I understand it, so what is this census as a result of which so many of your officers are involved in pulling cars over this morning?

  • Use of Statistics (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Damian Hockney
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    Thank you for that. I think a lot of it is also about public perception but also what other people say. I heard on the Today programme once Glen Smythe who is the Chair of the Metropolitan Police Federation saying, `The level of crime reported is far below that which really happens and the whole process is underplayed for political reasons'. I am link member on the MPA for Kensington and Chelsea and the Chair of the Police and Community Consultative Group (PCCG) there is constantly concerned with regard to, say, carnival that the level of reporting of crime is...

  • Use of Statistics (Supplementary) [12]

    • Question by: Damian Hockney
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    Would you, Commissioner, please comment on the misuse of statistics yesterday by the Mayor who said of the police force in Kingston that they were 14 times more likely to stop black people than white people, and that black people in Richmond were 13 times more likely to be stopped than white people? Would you explain how this has occurred and make it crystal clear that there is absolutely no question that the police in both of these fine Boroughs are doing anything which could conceivably be said to be discriminatory?

  • Transport Safer Neighbourhood Teams (2) (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Graham Tope
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    I agree with that wholly and Members will recall indeed we proposed a budget amendment at this year's budget debate to provide more policing in suburban London. My concern is that many outer London boroughs in the south of London do not have London Underground service at all, or indeed anywhere near them. Whilst policing on the buses is extremely important, in the commuter areas it is actually the overground rail and the stations and the trackside which is of importance. As you have just said, the public do not make much distinction about which type of uniform the police...
