  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Joanne McCartney AM: My question is to Niran. Looking forward at economic recovery, do you think there is a balance between jobs, in terms of the amount of jobs and job security we can offer, and making sure that companies offer good terms and conditions? Is that something that the Recovery Board has at the forefront of its mind?
  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [19]

    • Question by: Keith Prince
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Keith Prince AM: Thank you, Chair. May I add my thanks to all the members of the panel for all the work that they are doing across London and helping Londoners. My question is for Mr Bellamy. I am sure you are aware, Mr Bellamy, that across London there are around 5,000 people being put up in the hotels by different partners at the moment, many hundreds of whom are rough sleepers. Will you work with me and a number of other organisations that I am working with across London to provide the accommodation and support services needed for those...
  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [20]

    • Question by: Siân Berry
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Siân Berry AM: I want to ask David Bellamy a follow-up on a written question that I put to the Mayor in May when I asked about emergency decision-making during the crisis. In answer to that question, which was question 1473, he told me that the decision to suspend the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ), Congestion Charge and Low Emission Zone was an urgent TfL decision taken by TfL’s Commissioner, but this contradicts the press release the Mayor sent out, which said that he had instructed TfL to do this. The issue I want to raise here is about documenting...

  • LDA Board Meetings (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Lynne Featherstone
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2001
    Thank you. I think you have just demonstrated the point, actually. You've given a reasonably full answer on tourism, which is something we should have had before. If it wasn't Functional Bodies Question Time today, would we have had that information? The point about this whole debate, and I think you're getting it cross-party actually, is the feeling that you stick out like a sore thumb in your attitude towards openness and accountability, not just to the public. I would like these meetings all to be public and I would like all the information. What you've said today should have...
  • LDA Board Meetings (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Meg Hillier
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2001
    I share a number of the concerns that Tony's outlined and if we can perhaps particularly focus on the website. We're supposed to be, as the GLA family, into open government and the web approach was something that was an ethos that the Mayor and others agree is a great way of people having access. However, if you go onto the LDA website it seems, as Tony says, that you control what comes out in terms of press releases and I haven't yet managed to find the minutes on the website. Maybe I'm just not very good at browsing. But...
  • LDA Board Meetings (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2001
    Michael, rumours are flying around about the large amount of jobs that have been lost to date. Can you not give us an assurance and tell us are we talking thousands of jobs to date or what have you got that you can share with us today?
  • LDA Properties (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Elizabeth Howlett
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2001
    Have you ear-marked any sites for which you have considered the possibility of using this method?
  • LDA Properties (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Elizabeth Howlett
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2001
    I'm sure we would all like to know if you intend activating these powers and whether, in fact, these properties are in habitation at the present time and why you would consider using compulsory purchase orders for the greater gain of what? Because local authorities very rarely now use them. It's usually only for road building. But I would be interested to know in which area you would consider using it.
  • LDA Properties (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Elizabeth Howlett
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2001
    My information is quite wrong then and I apologise about that but I was informed that you had in fact used some compulsory purchase orders.
