  • Question & Answer Session: London's Long-Term Infrastructure Needs (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 08 June 2023
    Len Duvall AM: My question is for [Dr] Stephen King, it concerns the London Infrastructure Framework. You have recently released a report that calls on London to develop a central infrastructure development and delivery centre of expertise. What role would the GLA play in that? What is your thinking?
  • Question & Answer Session: London's Long-Term Infrastructure Needs (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 08 June 2023
    Len Duvall AM: Thank you very much. Thank you for the way that you answered those previous questions. It is very enlightening for everyone around this table, whatever party they belong to.

What concerns does the TUC have about this record number of Londoners finding themselves reliant on UC? What will that mean for poverty in the capital?
  • Economic Recovery in London (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 23 July 2020
    Len Duvall AM: Thank you very much, Chair. The proof and the outcome of the work of the London Recovery Board is that by this autumn there should be some practical actions that make a real difference to try to minimise the economic downturn. In all the hours that I have just been listening through, no one seems to have mentioned that we already have a LEAP. I am not sure what the London Recovery Board adds to the work of that. Can you tell me: what is the difference in roles? Is there a risk of overlap and duplication...
