  • Key Challenges for the London Fire Brigade (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 08 February 2018
    Caroline Russell AM: Commissioner, I wanted to say first of all how powerful it was to hear you speaking about the Firefighting Sexism campaign last week at the Young Women’s Trust event upstairs and how really shocking it was to hear about the very negative reaction from some people on Twitter to the suggestion that Fireman Sam might be renamed ‘Firefighter Sam’. That awful Twitter reaction shows just how much we still have to push for gender equality, as you said in your opening when talking about the importance of gender-neutral language and why your Firefighting Sexism campaign is so...
  • Provisions of Consultancy (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson

    • Meeting date: 18 January 2006
    The Greens have been working on pushing walking and cycling up the agenda. What would you say to Peter Hendy about the biggest change that you could make to walking and cycling? Are there any specific measures he could take to radically change the London streetscape from that point of view?

    One of my concerns is that as the bus fares and Tube fares rise, we are actually going to almost force people back into their cars. That is one of the reasons I so much agreed with you about getting under-16s free on the buses; I thought that was totally inappropriate because it makes buses more crowded for other people who might want to use them. Do you think we are going to see a situation where bus fares and Tube fares mean that it actually is worth paying the Congestion Charge and using private cars again?

  • Extension to Victoria Underground Lines Southwards to Herne Hill (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    On the West London Tram, will there be an additional large pot of money to tackle traffic reduction and rat-running, as we saw with Congestion Charging, not only an important measure but an important measure in terms of building public confidence before the scheme goes ahead?

    Has the budget been earmarked for that as part of the overall budget provisions?

    Therefore, you are not holding out any hope that I am going to see a sustainable transport unit this year.
