• Question by: Unmesh Desai
• Meeting date: 02 November 2017

Unmesh Desai AM: Thank you, Chair. David, I noted your answers to Assembly Member Bailey’s questions about the financial sustainability of the Stadium and so I will not repeat his questions. However, just to be very specific and much more direct then may I suggest Assembly Member Bailey was, you talked about the LLDC moving to a stable financial footing, you talked about long-term aspirations and you talked about making good progress, but you are not in a position today to tell us when the LLDC will have enough financial stability to be wound down. Yes or no?

Navin Shah AM: Thank you, Chair. David, this morning in your opening statement you referred to the Olympic Park and particularly the venues that are there. They are becoming a major destination. That is good news and I welcome that. Leaving aside the Stadium, can you tell the Assembly what the medium and long-term financial viability is of the venues within the Park?

Unmesh Desai AM: David, in the long term, can you tell us whether the Copper Box as well as the Aquatics Centre will continue to remain financially sustainable as well as affordable for the local residents and communities?

• Question by: Len Duvall OBE
• Meeting date: 02 November 2017

Len Duvall AM: Can we move on to some of the other contracts? We might include West Ham. In one of the LLDC documents - it might be in your annual report - you talk about “onerous contracts”. David Goldstone CBE (Chief Executive, London Legacy Development Corporation): Yes. Len Duvall AM: Are the onerous contracts that we are referring to the agreements with tenants such as West Ham and UK Athletics? Also, you have other contracts on catering, as well as the E20 management. You do not call it that. There is probably a technical term--

Leonie Cooper AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I wanted to ask you about progress on dealing with the quite catastrophically large gender pay gap. You had an action plan with a series of 15 different actions, all of which, apart from one, were to be completed before the date of this meeting. I wondered if you could tell us about progress and whether you have completed all of those actions.

• Meeting date: 02 November 2017

Tom Copley AM: Thank you, Chair. I have a question about building successful and integrated neighbourhoods. I want to ask first of all, very directly: has the LLDC formally adopted the Mayor’s target of 50% for all new homes across the Park?

• Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
• Meeting date: 16 March 2011

Thank you, Chair. I have got a number of questions. Firstly, to go back to what John was talking about, on the people legacy. The Olympic Park set itself benchmarks, as you know, Margaret. I know that you have been aware of the programmes it implemented. The sadness is that those teams may now well disperse. I welcome what you are doing with schools. Would you agree with me that you need also to work with local colleges, in the way that the ODA did, and what you need to do is, in a sense, take the baton and do...

Can I come to the sports legacy which has been touched on briefly by Gareth on the public subsidies. I am concerned that we do not have the Wimbledon effect which is we only play tennis for a few weeks after the Games and that is it. The role you play in that: firstly, what are you doing to help the Mayor achieve his 90% community use target for the Olympic Park in legacy?

• Question by: Nicky Gavron
• Meeting date: 16 March 2011

I have very little time so I am going to ask for a very brief answer. How many of the social rented homes - or homes originally planned to be social rented - available between 2012 and 2016 do you think the new affordable rent model will apply to?

• Question by: John Biggs
• Meeting date: 16 March 2011

): Thank you, Chair. Jennette Arnold AM and I are the two Constituency Members for the area that you are operating in. I am a bit worried by my question because it covers an area which you have not said anything about. Jennette and I represent the people of that area. You have done a lot of good work on physical infrastructure, stadiums, facilities and park planning but you have said nothing about the communities and how what you are doing is there to address the needs and the potential economic prosperity of those communities. Can you tell us what...
