  • Commissioner Recruitment

    • Reference: 2016/2841
    • Question by: Gareth Bacon MP
    • 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?
  • Instant Response Vehicles

    • Reference: 2016/2839
    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2016
    What progress has been made by the London Fire Brigade in rolling out instant response vehicles?
  • Challenges for the London Fire Brigade (Supplementary) [2]

    • 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?
  • Commissioner Recruitment (Supplementary) [3]

    • 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?
  • Commissioner Recruitment (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2016
    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?
  • 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?
