• Question by: Keith Prince
• Meeting date: 17 November 2022

Keith Prince AM: Thank you, Chair. Mr Mayor, I just want to try to develop a bit more the point that Assembly Member Baker was making, which I thought was a good point about essential journeys. You may recall, Mr Mayor - or do you recall - that at the last People's Question Time (PQT) there was a young lady who stood up, who was a teacher. She turned out to be one of my residents and she -

Krupesh Hirani AM: Thank you, Chair. This is to the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan. What health benefits have been achieved by expanding ULEZ to the North and South Circular Roads so far?

• Question by: Peter Fortune
• Meeting date: 17 November 2022

Peter Fortune AM: Seb, I am really interested in data, and I really like to do an analysis of the facts we have. When you were talking earlier about the attributable premature deaths, was it the Imperial College report you were referring to?

• Question by: Len Duvall OBE
• Meeting date: 17 November 2022

Len Duvall AM: Thank you, Chair. If we can go back to the evidence base for this revision; in September 2021 - and this is to the Mayor - the WHO produced an updated quality guidance. What impact have these issues, of the updated guidance, had on your decision to revise the Strategy?

• Question by: Emma Best
• Meeting date: 17 November 2022

Emma Best AM: Thank you. I was really brought in by Assembly Member Baker’s line of questioning there, and Assembly Member Unmesh Desai, actually, let Assembly Member Keith Prince finish earlier, so perhaps I will expand all that for her, though I had not planned to. That is the really important point, those lost journeys. A lot of the emails I get are about “I go and visit my Dad or my Mum/I do the shopping for my uncle every week, and I am not going to be able to afford to make that journey.” How are you measuring that...

• Question by: Elly Baker
• Meeting date: 17 November 2022

Elly Baker AM: Thank you, Chair. Good afternoon, Mr Mayor, Mr Deputy Mayor. I would like to talk about the transport impact of potential changes to the MTS. One of the proposed positive outcomes of the revision to the MTS is to combat traffic congestion, and I think that is an outcome that every Londoner, whether they drive or do not drive, would really, really welcome. The Expanded Ultra Low Emission Zone - Six Month Report says, “... there were 21,000 fewer vehicles seen in the zone on an average day ...” Mr Mayor, what impact would you expect an...

• Question by: Neil Garratt
• Meeting date: 17 November 2022

Neil Garratt AM: Good afternoon. Listening to the way you advocate for your policy, I can understand why quite a lot of Londoners would think that it is an obvious and straightforward thing to do. You make it sound like a no-brainer, which really makes it even more impressive that the majority of Londoners tell YouGov that they do not really support it. What I find perturbing is that the way that you advocate the policy; if it is a straightforward and obvious way forward, why is it that you have to be so dishonest and unclear with Londoners about...

• Question by: Unmesh Desai
• Meeting date: 17 November 2022

Unmesh Desai AM: Thank you, Chair. You were asked earlier, by Assembly Member McCartney, about public transport in outer London. Mr Mayor, the frequent closures of the District Line at weekends for essential works causes a lot of inconvenience for residents in my constituency, especially Barking and Dagenham. The information I have had from TfL does not address my concerns, and this has been going on for some years. The frequent closure of Dagenham Heathway because of leaking roofs, and with the recent weather and the rains, means that the station is quite often shut. If we are to encourage...

• Question by: Siân Berry
• Meeting date: 17 November 2022

Siân Berry AM: Thank you very much. My questions are also to the Mayor. You will recall, Mr Mayor, the election campaign of 2016, where from the very start, sitting on platforms with Assembly Member Pidgeon and yourself, I would not stop going on about the need for a London-wide ULEZ and smarter, fairer road charging. It is a huge relief to finally see an outbreak of widespread, political courage on this matter; I really appreciate it. For my question, I wanted to go back to what the Transport Committee asked in relation to promoting safety considerations as part of...

• Question by: Nick Rogers
• Meeting date: 17 November 2022

Nick Rogers AM: Thank you, Chair. Good afternoon, Mr Mayor; my questions are for you. I take issue with a couple of points that the Deputy Mayor made: he described this revision as a process point and a small addendum, where it is in fact neither of those things. What you are asking the Assembly to do today is to give our seal of approval to some very controversial policies that would have a negative financial impact on thousands of Londoners, and small businesses, across the city. I am sure everyone’s inboxes have been the same as mine, full of...
