  • Question and Answer Session: Refugees in London (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2023
    Unmesh Desai AM: Thank you, Chair. Good morning to the panel. My main question is to Tunde [Olayinka] and Hannah [Boylan] and it is about modern slavery. Modern slavery was described by the Archbishop of Westminster, I think in 2016 or 2017, as “the dark underbelly of London’s society”.

  • Fire at De Pass Gardens

    • Reference: 2019/14508
    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 18 July 2019
    Barking and Dagenham Council’s response to the fire at De Pass Gardens was commendable. 30 minutes after the initial reports, the Council’s emergency support team was on location, within 2 hours, a rescue-rest centre had been set up and by midnight, the Council had secured a bed in the Borough for every resident who needed it. With the help from Go-Ahead busses and the council’s own passenger transport services, residents were taken to where they needed to be. Will you be ensuring that the good practice shown by Barking and Dagenham Council on the day of the incident can be...
