• Meeting date: 07 September 2016

Why were proposals to recruit an interim Commissioner put to the recent meeting of LFEPA's Appointments & Urgency Committee, instead of a proposal to extend the present Commissioner's contract whilst also recruiting a permanent successor?

What progress has been made by the London Fire Brigade in rolling out instant response vehicles?

• Question by: Andrew Boff
• Meeting date: 07 September 2016

Could you just run over it for me - because I thought I had the figures and I did not quite believe them and so I must have misheard - the comparison between the number of incidents between 2007 and 2016 and the number of deaths in fires between 2007 and 2016 and the first attendance response times again? Could you just run over those with me again?

• Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
• Meeting date: 07 September 2016

I have a question to pick up on my colleague’s point. It strikes me that this recruitment process will limit the people who can be recruited. If you are a senior fire person elsewhere and take this interim role, you will not be able to leave the role you are in. Correct me if I am wrong - and I am prepared to be wrong - but would you not have to convince your own fire authority to loan you to us?

I do echo my colleague’s point. In terms of continuity of personnel, would you not agree with me that when you have senior people doing a job and being accountable, continuity over a period of time is absolutely essential?

What preparations have the LDA made for the transition into the GLA?

• Question by: Tony Arbour
• Meeting date: 10 November 2010

I would like to return, please, to the question which was raised by John Biggs about the possible burden on London council taxpayers of the change of control. It is clear that there are going to be some continuing obligations which the LDA has entered into which are going to have to continue to be paid for. I want to know how you decide how the payments are going to be made? If those payments are going to be made, where is the money coming from? As I understand it, the vast bulk of the money which Government is going...

• Meeting date: 10 November 2010

The question has regularly been asked by those of us certainly from this side in the past about handing regeneration back to the boroughs. Where does this current situation leave us on that question, if I can follow the line that Tony was taking about on localism?

Anthony Browne gave us evidence that he knew of 15 potential LEPs across London that were being proposed. Why would you turn them down if they have made a good local case?

• Question by: Steve O'Connell
• Meeting date: 10 November 2010

Back to the fascinating subject of LEPs, by the look on your face you knew I would raise this. I would like your thoughts around Croydon's aspiration - already signed-up - to a coast-to-coast LEP with the Gatwick Diamond and Brighton? I sense your earlier comment was a rather lukewarm welcome for that concept. I would like your thoughts around that. Also, to be supportive of my learned colleague, Andrew Boff, do you agree that there is no reason why a borough could not be a member of more than one LEP, so it may see the attractions of a...
