• Meeting date: 10 June 2021

Susan Hall AM: This is addressed to the Mayor. Good morning. Do you think your Health in All Policies approach was successful when implementing your Street Space schemes across London?

• Question by: Andrew Boff
• Meeting date: 23 July 2020

Andrew Boff AM: I wanted to have a word with Georgia Gould, who brought up the question of the impact of COVID-19 on housing. I wondered if Camden Council would be reviewing its housing policies in the light of the COVID-19 outbreak.

• Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
• Meeting date: 23 July 2020

Shaun Bailey AM: Thank you, Chair. I wanted to go back and cover this ground of additional support for particular groups. What does that look like for the recovery programme? Who gets to decide which groups we are going to support more and why? We talked a lot about the BAME community and the impact of COVID on my community, but also white working-class men have had very poor health outcomes from it. Who is identifying which groups are going to be supported and what is the criteria around that? This is to Councillor Georgia and maybe to Philip Graham...

• Question by: Keith Prince
• Meeting date: 23 July 2020

Keith Prince AM: Thank you, Chair. Could I look to Philip Graham as the only representative of the GLA family, please? Would you agree with the point that Jace Tyrrell made when he was saying that there is not a very good comparison with London when you look at other major cities that are getting far more people on their public transport now than we are? Do you think that is possibly down to confidence on public transport? Could that reason possibly be because people do not feel safe on our transport system? I am constantly getting complaints from my...

• Question by: Len Duvall OBE
• Meeting date: 23 July 2020

Len Duvall AM: Thank you very much, Chair. The proof and the outcome of the work of the London Recovery Board is that by this autumn there should be some practical actions that make a real difference to try to minimise the economic downturn. In all the hours that I have just been listening through, no one seems to have mentioned that we already have a LEAP. I am not sure what the London Recovery Board adds to the work of that. Can you tell me: what is the difference in roles? Is there a risk of overlap and duplication...

• Question by: Murad Qureshi
• Meeting date: 23 July 2020

Murad Qureshi AM: Thank you, Chair. I want to move the debate to skills for the future now. Can I start by asking Jordon Cummins: will there be a greater demand for digital skills required in the post-COVID-19 economy and what types of skills will they be?

• Question by: Alison Moore
• Meeting date: 23 July 2020

Dr Alison Moore AM: Thank you, Chair. I would like to move on to the future of workspace. To John Dickie and Jace Tyrrell, is home-working here to stay? If so, what impact will this and a shift away from central London office spaces have on London’s economy? What does the Mayor need to do to support that central London economy?

• Question by: Unmesh Desai
• Meeting date: 23 July 2020

Unmesh Desai AM: Good afternoon, panel. My question is to John Dickie and it is about the future of our high streets. We have already had some references in the earlier discussion to small businesses and to high streets. Jordan Cummins talked about small businesses gasping for breath. Georgia Gould talked about high streets being at the heart of recovery plans. I could not agree more. Mr Dickie, with London boroughs focused on helping localised shopping areas, what is the future for our local high streets? How can they be put at the heart of our recovery plans?

• Question by: Andrew Dismore
• Meeting date: 23 July 2020

Andrew Dismore AM: Thank you, Chair. Georgia, I wanted to ask you about the PPE supply, because the fragility of the PPE supply has been under scrutiny throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, after weeks of dragging its feet and giving mixed messages, the Government has made face coverings mandatory in shops as of tomorrow. In this context, how can our post-COVID economy build in better resilience for essential supplies like PPE?

• Question by: Nicky Gavron
• Meeting date: 23 July 2020

Nicky Gavron AM: Thank you, Chair. Panel, good morning. I have seen that we have had quite a lot of questions on the arts and creative sectors, but I want to drill down now. This morning the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee published its report on some of what we have been drilling down on. I would like to ask a number of you to think about this question, but perhaps I could start with Sam Gurney from the TUC. We know that the self-employment income support scheme is available only if you get more than half your...
