  • Housing and Planning (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 01 July 2021
    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. What impact is it having on the health of people already living in the area, and are you doing any work to address this?
  • Housing and Planning (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Zack Polanski
    • Meeting date: 01 July 2021
    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?

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 01 July 2021
    Unmesh Desai AM: Good morning. My question is to Royal Docks Programme Director Daniel Bridge. How will developments at the Royal Docks bring opportunities for London?
  • South West Trains

    • Reference: 2015/4359
    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 16 December 2015
    With South West Trains' operating contract ending in July 2017, what work is TfL doing to maximise the chances of it taking control of South West London's commuter rail network?
  • Compensation for train delays and cancellations

    • Reference: 2015/1961
    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 17 June 2015
    Last week it was revealed that there were over 3,000 train journeys where Londoners could have claimed compensation because their train was late or cancelled. But only 15% of people who could claim actually did. Do you think that train operators and TfL should do more to promote the fact that commuters can receive compensation for late or cancelled journeys?
  • Housing Demand (Supplementary) [20]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 24 October 2007
    Can I just go back to Neale's comments. I am glad to hear that local authorities are looking at areas where there is already the social infrastructure to provide additional housing. It strikes me, though, that the last time the capacity study was done at the GLA, during the first term, the local authorities in the south-west, where there is the infrastructure, the roads and what have you, got off lightly. I am talking about Richmond upon Thames and Kingston upon Thames. It seems to me, when I go through those parts of town, the infrastructure is there to accommodate...
  • Range of Housing (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 24 October 2007
    It is good that we have got an opportunity to make a step change in the quality of development, particularly in affordable homes, with this Strategy and the Mayor's new powers. We also, as Assembly Members, had a rather robust conversation over lunch with the London Housing Corporation. That was about the very great degree of variance there seems to be at the moment between the housing management standards and the estate management standards - the neighbourhood management standards - between existing housing associations, amongst which there has been a great balkanisation; there are 500 or so housing associations in...
  • Range of Housing (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Peter Hulme Cross
    • Meeting date: 24 October 2007
    A little while ago I went to an exhibition at the Building Federation. They were showing what I can only call an updated pre-fabricated house. It was actually a flat. It had a steel frame and it was was in situ, inside this frame. The frame could be put on the back of a lorry and taken to a site and bolted together. You could construct, effectively, a block of flats in modular fashion and all you had to do, having plonked it there, was to connect up electricity and water. The whole thing was centrally heated, and worked just...

    That is going to be true even with the new powers.
