  • City Operations Programme (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 20 July 2011
    On the London Live issue still, on the tickets for that, can you explain how that is going to work?
  • Housing Demand (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 24 October 2007
    I have not got time to get into an argument with you so I would just like to ask you a question if that is all right. I know that sales of social housing have fallen this year and there was actually an increase in the number of social housing, but it is always like a leaky pot, isn't it: as fast as you build the social housing there is the right to buy process, and so you are losing those houses? Doesn't the Mayor have any powers to remove the right to buy on new social building?
  • Environmental Commitments

    • Meeting date: 15 February 2007
    Can you update us on progress towards the Games' environmental commitments?
  • LFPA Statement of Investment Principles (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 17 January 2007
    You can see from the questions that you have been asked today this is clearly a hot topic for us, and also, as politicians, we are very concerned about the issue of openness and the public knowing. So far this aspect has not been in the annual report, that is other information that I have. Is that not true? This is something you bring in to the annual report or is it simply that it is the first time you have had it so it has not happened yet?
  • LFPA Statement of Investment Principles (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 17 January 2007
    Judging from your answers, some of the information I have here that I was going to ask you about is completely erroneous, and I am going to be delighted if you tell me I am completely wrong. I would like to follow on from my colleague Mike's [Tuffrey] excellent line of questioning on openness. The feeling is generally that there is not as much openness from you as there are from other companies who have got the same sort of ethical and socially responsible stance. Can I clarify; you commented on the voting record, however my understanding is that although...
  • Investment in Tobacco Companies and the Arms Trade (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 17 January 2007
    It does leave the question hanging in the air; what on earth is the point of having any sort of strategy or corporate social responsibility and ethical policy if you are not going to implement it by choosing between companies? Let me go back to your answer about the arms trade and tobacco. You say at the moment you are not big investors in them. It is my question you are probably answering later. In that case, why not take a principled stance and stop investing. There must be thousands upon thousands of people who are pension holders who would...
  • Value of LFPA investments in Arms, Tobacco and Animal Testing

    • Reference: 2007/0010
    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 17 January 2007
    What is the total current value of LFPA investments in companies involved in arms, tobacco and animal testing?
  • Flooding (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2005
    One of the methods that you could accommodate this flood risk is through the Green Grid. Now, I am not seeing any movement on this. I am not seeing the finance in place. I am not seeing, in any serious way, that you are actually going to put that in place.
  • Sustainable Management System (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2005
    Just on that point about the sustainability issues within the procurement document: will contracts be independently appraised before they are let, say, by the London Sustainable Development Commission (LSDC) or something like that?
  • Publicising environment and legacy promises

    • Reference: 2005/0270-1
    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2005
    Would you support the idea of publicising a list of key promises made on the Olympics to help local people (and others) keep a track of progress on the delivery of these promises?
