  • Question and Answer Session: Refugees in London (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Leonie Cooper
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2023
    Léonie Cooper AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I would like to start with a question to Deputy Mayor Tom Copley, if I may. Hi, Tom. Last year, the Mayor said as the Chair of the C40 Cities Group, “One of my priorities is taking urgent action to address the causes and devastating human cost of forced migration created by the climate emergency”. I wondered if you could outline what actions overall the Mayor has taken in London since then?
  • Housing and Planning (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Leonie Cooper
    • Meeting date: 01 July 2021
    Léonie Cooper AM: My question is for Deputy Mayor Tom Copley. Maybe we should have a little reset in terms of levels of politeness. The 2016 Affordable Housing Programme will build 116,000 affordable homes for £4.82 billion while the 2021 Affordable Housing Programme will build 82,000 for £4 billion. I just heard you mention rising building costs and so I am sure that is one of the reasons, but why does it cost just under £49,000 to fund an affordable home today when it cost £41,500 in 2016? What has changed?
