  • Key Challenges for the London Fire Brigade (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 08 February 2018
    Susan Hall AM: Thank you. Good morning, both. Fiona, massive congratulations to you. In your opening statement, you said that we are very proud of the Brigade and of course we are, and we were very happy on this side that Mayor Khan decided to do three different reports to see how well the service was doing, given the closure of the stations. Of course, it came out that the LFB was in a very good place and so we were very happy about that. When will you publish the new corporate governance arrangements prior to the abolition of the...
  • Key Challenges for the London Fire Brigade (Supplementary) [12]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 08 February 2018
    Tony Devenish AM: Good morning, Deputy Mayor. If we tried to paint a picture of the LFB in, say, eight years, 2026, could you paint me some big pictures of what the real differences will be, please?
  • Concern (Supplementary) [30]

    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
    I would be very interested, Mr Hendy, to see the results of that study. Just anecdotally, tipper-truck drivers do seem to drive incredibly fast and just from my observation, as somebody who did cycle in this morning, and cycles in to City Hall most days, it desperately needs attention, because there is something desperately wrong with the way in which those vehicles are used on the roads of London.
  • Performance of London Underground (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
    Boris, there is some work going on on the District line at the moment to improve the service, which we are all very pleased about. This I think is really a question for the Commissioner. The work that is going on at the depot in Upminster is proving to be more disruptive to neighbours than they were told it would be, with noise and working for longer hours than they were told would take place, and I think what can fairly be described as an unhelpful attitude from some of the staff in the depot when the neighbours go around...
  • Government Delivery of Mayoral Policies (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
    You have just said one significant thing that I have not heard before and that is that the Commissioner himself is supportive of this line of policy. Perhaps we could have it on the record from Peter Hendy just how supportive he has because in our approaches to Government, whether it be the Prime Minister or other Cabinet Ministers, what the Commissioner for TfL might say about it would be rather important, I believe.
  • PPP/Metronet

    • Reference: 2007/0251-1
    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    Will the Commissioner make a statement on TfL's bid on Metronet?
  • Fare Evasion

    • Reference: 2007/0252-1
    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    Could the Commissioner comment on whether he feels Transport for London is doing enough to reduce fare evasion on London's buses?
  • TfL Financial Statements

    • Reference: 2007/0253-1
    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    Does the Commissioner believe that the Mayor is acting honestly in trumpeting the amount of money that TfL has given to London boroughs this year when, for the second year running, London boroughs have received a real terms cut in the amount of money Transport for London are providing them for improving the capital's roads and footpaths?
  • Oyster System

    • Reference: 2007/0254-1
    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    The Oyster system and the Oyster online system are not properly integrated as they have different passwords, and it is not possible to check your journey history online if you have topped up your card at a station. When customers request information by email, they are told that it can take up to 5 days, which means it is actually quicker to get it by post. Does the Commissioner believe that this system is cheap, efficient or environmentally friendly?
  • Fare Evasion

    • Reference: 2007/0255-1
    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    The Assembly's Transport Committee recently observed a team of Revenue Protection Inspectors greeting a succession of bendy buses. We were told that in a 2-hour period, the RPIs could expect to find 100-130 bus users without tickets and on every bus we saw a great number of bus passengers rush to escape from the bus as soon as they saw they would be checked. Unsurprisingly, it is difficult to ascertain quite how many passengers surreptitiously swiped their Oyster cards only after they had seen they would be checked. Is 100-130 bus users without tickets an acceptable figure?
