• 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...

• Meeting date: 09 June 2022

Siân Berry AM: Just briefly, I just want to say at the start that I have already had lots of constituents get in touch about huge concerns they have about cuts to the buses. That consultation is vital, and I will be encouraging many Londoners to respond. But today, for my questions, I am going to focus on fares and the cost of living and put my first question to the Mayor. I am really concerned about the impact of the cost of living crisis on people who depend on using public transport. A Royal College of Nursing survey in...

• Meeting date: 09 June 2022

Elly Baker AM: Thank you, Chair. Mr Mayor, one of the punitive measures that was required as part of the funding deal was to get TfL back to financial sustainability by April 2023. Will TfL be financially sustainable by that date?

Léonie Cooper AM: I would like to hear the answer to the question about the revival of Soho. I am sure that Amy Lam é will be able to give the answer in less than 40 seconds. Thank you, Chair.

• Question by: Zack Polanski
• Meeting date: 03 March 2022

Zack Polanski AM: Luke, I want to continue the conversation about high streets and I also want to bring it back to a conversation we had earlier about smart, privacy‑friendly, fair road user charging. If we look at high streets, we can look at Waltham Forest with the mini‑Holland. The evidence there is clearly that people spend more than when they are on foot than when they are in cars. In fact, TfL’s own research shows that pedestrians spend 40% more than people driving. Now, there are obviously health benefits, environmental benefits and safety benefits to reducing traffic and making...

• Question by: Anne Clarke
• Meeting date: 03 March 2022

Anne Clarke AM: Luke, my questions are to you. I am going to ask you questions on the high streets, if that is OK. How integral is the support to London’s high streets to London’s economic recovery and businesses?

• Question by: Susan Hall
• Meeting date: 03 March 2022

Susan Hall AM: I am addressing my questions to the Deputy Mayor. First of all, with your interactions with my colleague, Assembly Member Rogers, I know you have had a memory loss of the businesses that you have spoken to, their names, but what were their answers to you, when you spoke to these businesses that we do not know who they were? When you spoke to these anonymous businesses, what did they say about the impact of the strike on their businesses?

• Question by: Sakina Sheikh
• Meeting date: 03 March 2022

Sakina Sheikh AM: Amy, I was hoping to talk to you a little bit about the night‑time economy and what we are doing in City Hall to help the night‑time economy get back on its feet and recover from COVID‑19.

• Question by: Caroline Russell
• Meeting date: 03 March 2022

Caroline Russell AM: I would like to address my questions to the Night Czar. Good morning, Amy. I would briefly like to talk to you about the work I have been doing on toilets in London. A few years ago you worked on a data‑led report that took an analytical look at the night‑time economy and people who work at night. It was some really valuable work and produced some good insights on the Living Wage at night, where data and information had been lacking. What the Health Committee has found is a similar vacuum of data on public toilets...

• Question by: Sem Moema
• Meeting date: 03 March 2022

Sem Moema AM: My question also relates to skills gaps and supporting disabled Londoners. If I could direct my question to Luke, please. Could you tell us a little bit more about the improvements the Mayor has made to improving access to learning for Londoners with disabilities and low‑income Londoners, and how that is working post‑pandemic?
