Dr Onkar Sahota AM: My question is for the Deputy Mayor, Jules Pipe. You talked earlier on about vaccine hesitancy and, of course, the vaccine is a way out of this pandemic, but it does depend upon many people taking it up.

Len Duvall AM: Jules, can I take you back to Joanne McCartney’s [AM] question around skills training and the ability to build capacity into various sectors? For instance, we know that one of the barriers to retraining or getting people back into the world of work is effective childcare. We also know across London there are gaps in the provision, whether it is childminding at one end, flexible care or even nursery provision.

Jennette Arnold OBE AM (Chair): Yes, thank you. Can I start my question to Sir Peter? It is going back to a Plenary Assembly meeting that we had on 2 November 2017.
