  • Question and Answer Session: Functional Bodies - Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 11 November 2021
    Joanne McCartney AM: My question is to David. We have heard today about the reallocation of sites for housing in the development. I noticed in your local plan modifications consultation schedule that you still say that you are confident that you can achieve that 50% affordable housing target overall, but I want you to confirm that.

    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    I think in tackling worklessness, it is obviously important that you have children coming out of school and training and retraining for adults to meet the needs of the workplace, but I am wondering presumably you will be consulting with business, about what business needs and a strategy but will you also be consulting with young people as well?
