  • How are you seeking to transform the London Fire Brigade so that it is well equipped to keep Londoners safe in the future? London's Preparedness for a Terrorist Attack (Supplement) [6]

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2022
    Deputy Mayor, how do you anticipate the refreshed review by Lord [Toby] Harris into London’s preparedness for a terrorist attack will impact upon the work of the LFB?
  • London and Covid-19 Restrictions (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 12 January 2021
    Léonie Cooper AM (on behalf of Jennette Arnold OBE AM): Thank you very much, Chair. It is quite ironic because Assembly Member Arnold’s question is about digital access, which she clearly does not have this morning at all. I wondered if I could ask John Barradell and possibly Fiona Twycross as well, between you, what the Mayor and local authorities can do to support digital access for Londoners, which has become so important during the pandemic for everybody, from young to old. Can I start with you, John, maybe?
  • London and Covid-19 Restrictions (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Alison Moore
    • Meeting date: 12 January 2021
    Dr Alison Moore AM: Thank you very much, Chair. My first question is to Fiona Twycross, if I may, but before I ask that could I reiterate the thanks to all the guests and their colleagues for the work they are doing? Fiona, how will you ensure that Londoners living in poverty or on the verge of poverty are supported and receive the essentials during this second wave and the more infectious strain, particularly in light of the challenge around self-isolation during lockdown?
  • London and Covid-19 Restrictions (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Leonie Cooper
    • Meeting date: 12 January 2021
    Léonie Cooper AM: Thank you, Chair. I would like to address my question to Deputy Mayor, Fiona Twycross and John Barradell. We have covered a lot of ground this morning; lots of different areas that we have looked at. I just wondered if you could set out, for the Assembly, what you believe are the main challenges and the most pressing issues for the SCG going forward? This is a bit of forward look. I know it is quite hard because we are still in the middle of everything at the moment, but it would be great if you could...
  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Caroline Russell AM: My first question is also for John Barradell. The Government was criticised as being slow to act in bringing in lockdown measures earlier this year, and right now we are 48 hours from restrictions easing further. At the same time, we have several countries like Germany, Sweden and France which are showing signs of a second wave of cases, and, worryingly, we have the new lockdown in Leicester. The Mayor on Tuesday sensibly asked for clarity from the Government on local lockdown powers for our city. I understand that London does not currently have powers to bring...
  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    David Kurten AM: Good morning, everybody. My first question would go to David Bellamy. I think you would be the person to answer this, but if you are not you can pass it on. My question is, what remuneration will the members of the London Transition Board and London Recovery Board be receiving for their service?
  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Onkar Sahota
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Dr Onkar Sahota AM: My question is to Mr John Barradell, please. Testing is paramount in preventing the spread of the virus and also then tracing. How far advanced are we in London on testing? Will the testing be taking place for everyone in London for antigens and antibodies?
  • Climate Change Action Plan and London's Buildings (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Do you know, I am flabbergasted by this, Deputy Mayor. You have just told us that these low-energy bulbs are in fact a transitional thing, because LED bulbs are going to come in which are going to be efficient, but at the same time your publicity has told us that these light bulbs are going to have a very long life. Clearly it is quite pointless that they should have a long life if something more permanent is going to come along. It is a bit like somebody trying to sell me a Betamax video recorder! The whole thing is...
  • Climate Change Action Plan and London's Buildings (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    One final thing on this; I believe the whole thing is completely ludicrous. This refers to DIY Planet Repairs. Whenever we switch on any of the computers in this building a big thing comes up with an exclamation mark saying `DIY Planet Repairs'; utterly meaningless. I can well understand why there is an exclamation mark there; this has cost the Council Tax payers of London more than £1.25 million! Can you point to any `DIY Planet Repair' which the Mayor and this campaign have actually achieved?
  • Climate Change Action Plan and London's Buildings (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Of the 30,000 a year that you are predicting?
