  • Transport Infrastructure in Outer London (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2024
    Nick Rogers AM: Thank you, Chair. Just briefly, Mr Mayor, you mentioned the phrase “step-free desert”, which is one I have used before in relation to Chiswick, a key area of London served by the Piccadilly line and the District line, but none of the stations there have step-free access. Just a quick plea, if you could ask your team to go and look at what they can do at those stations. I know that they are difficult stations, there is no easy solution to step-free access there, but an entire area of London is without step-free access, therefore could...
  • Question and Answer Session: Refugees in London (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2023
    Nick Rogers AM: Thank you, Chair. Good morning, panel. I have some questions around English language skills, so I imagine they will probably sit best with Tunde Olayinka. Through the Adult Education Budget (AEB), the GLA funds English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) provision for around 40,000 people in London at a cost of approximately £40 million. Do you know how many refugees are amongst that 40,000?
  • Question and Answer Session: Transport for London (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Nick Rogers
    • Meeting date: 09 June 2022
    Nick Rogers AM: Good morning, Mr Mayor. Good morning, Commissioner. You talked about the Elizabeth line, and it is an absolutely fantastic piece of British engineering. I have really enjoyed travelling on it. It will make a huge difference, not just to London, but to the southeast and beyond. While we are all extremely happy that it is open, we cannot ignore the sometimes tortured journey that it took to get to that point. Do we have a clear picture, Mr Mayor, of the financial impact overall in terms of lost revenue and additional capital spending of the delay to...

    A new report from the Department for Education shows that learning losses in schools that have many pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds were around 50% higher than those schools with very few pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds.

  • Question and Answer Session: COVID-19 Recovery - The Next Steps for London (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 04 March 2021
    Jennette Arnold OBE AM: The idea of Assembly Member Qureshi being at the pulse of London is so amazing. We are so thrilled to have him among us. My question is for Councillor Danny Thorpe. It is about the need for a robust safety net for possibly millions of Londoners who are desperate to avoid being trapped in poverty and can see little support coming their way to relieve their hardship. You spoke earlier about a new generation in poverty, and I wondered if you could give us a couple of examples of how the missions of the Recovery Board...
  • Bus shelter at the "Southgate Road" stop on Balls Pond

    • Reference: 2021/0782
    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 25 February 2021
    The bus shelter at the "Southgate Road" stop on Balls Pond Road has been replaced and the new one does not have Countdown. Now that buses to Highbury Corner are 15 minutes apart it is all the more necessary to know if you have just missed one! Could the Mayor confirm when a Countdown will be installed?
