Caroline Russell AM: I want to put my question to Daniel Bridge, the Programme Director for the Royal Docks team. City Airport sits in the heart of the Royal Docks Enterprise Zone.

Zack Polanski AM: My question is also for Daniel. I am speaking to you from the Chamber at City Hall, which is on one of the more notorious public‑private spaces, More London, and we are shortly going to be moving to The Crystal. My first question is: who actually owns the land that The Crystal is on? Is it one of the GLA’s pocket strategic development sites? Is it owned by the developer Advanced Business Park? Is it someone else entirely?

Unmesh Desai AM: Dr Jameel, the criteria for vaccination in the UK has been to protect the NHS. Other countries have prioritised younger people to support the economy. Is that strategy working? Is it the right one? The reason I am asking this question is that it is important that Londoners know and understand the scientific and medical evidence upon which we are working.

Léonie Cooper AM: Thank you very much, Chair. My question is to Jordan. Thanks very much for that introductory statement. Small and large businesses have had to adapt their business models, as you were pointing out, and all of their ways of working to deal with the pandemic situation since March. However, from September, they face the prospect of having to change their business models again to adapt to the changes that will come at the end of December with the no-deal Brexit. Carolyn Fairbairn [Director-General, CBI] has had a lot to say about the Brexit situation. I just wondered...

Caroline Russell AM: Thank you, Chair, and good morning, everyone. Thank you to this huge panel for joining us.

Peter Whittle AM: Thank you very much, Mr Chair. Good morning to the panel. My question I think I have to ask you all, and maybe someone can answer it. It is just about London’s - if you want to call it - cultural industry. I do not mean by that necessarily the creative industry. I mean in terms of theatre, in terms of performing arts, in terms of all the things that make up a huge part of London life and, of course, the economy. What are your views on the future of that? How do you see that...

Shaun Bailey AM: Good morning to all our guests. I would just like to finish this point about the cultural industry in London, because of course we have a visitor economy, and this is basically what those people are visiting: our huge variety of culture and the scale of the culture. What kind of intervention are we looking for in monetary terms? If we are approaching the Government and asking for more money, can we give that a figure? Can we give it a ballpark? What kind of monies are we talking about? Why don’t I start with Philip and...
