Crossrail 2 funding (Supplementary) [1]

  • Question by: Gareth Bacon MP
  • Meeting date: 22 November 2018
I had not intended to come in on this question, but following on from Assembly Member Copley’s line of questioning about land value capture, land value capture is fine in theory but is illiquid. One of the ways of capturing value from land would be to charge higher taxation in the form of council tax or some kind of surplus in the immediate locality, particularly around stations. Given that it is illiquid and people in property that is by the Crossrail 2 site will not be able to benefit from it until they sell their property, will you specifically rule...

Rotherhithe to Canary Wharf bridge (Supplementary) [2]

  • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
  • Meeting date: 22 November 2018
Mr Mayor, I was not going to intervene but I do want to go back to an earlier point made by Assembly Member Caroline Pidgeon [MBE]. It is not about being in favour - or it should not be about being in favour - of one set of designs or the other. You may have misunderstood. It is about the processes. We have been here before. When an Assembly Member raises a question about the process, we need to clear the air. What has happened in terms of questions, in my understanding, that have been asked of TfL is that...

Rotherhithe to Canary Wharf bridge (Supplementary) [1]

  • Question by: Gareth Bacon MP
  • Meeting date: 22 November 2018
Thank you, Chairman. Mr Mayor, Assembly Member Pidgeon [MBE] is right in that this is a very high-profile project about which there was much noise quite a while ago and there has been very little noise about it for quite some time. How much is this bridge going to cost?

Oral Update to the Mayor's Report (Supplementary) [2]

  • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2018
Jennette Arnold OBE AM: Chairman, thank you so much. Just quickly to the Mayor and his statement about Deputy Mayor Matthew Ryder leaving us. I have had the pleasure of working very closely with him both in my role as Lead of many of the areas he covers for my Group and also, as you know, someone who has had a passion on these areas for the last 40 or 50 years. I would just like to say to the Deputy through you, Mr Mayor, that on Monday night, at the event that I took part with on behalf of...

Oral Update to the Mayor's Report (Supplementary) [1]

  • Question by: Siân Berry
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2018
Sian Berry AM: Thank you very much for answering that extra question, Mr Mayor. Can I just clarify. Have you spoken with the Commissioner about the delays in this case and to get that new information and, if not, do you plan to?

Reducing London's road crime (Supplementary) [1]

  • Question by: Siân Berry
  • Meeting date: 01 November 2018
Sian Berry AM: Very quickly, if I can, I have received data from the Mayor in a Mayor’s Question [response], for the first time getting the number of prosecutions for hit-and-run road crime offences. I have a year’s data there now to look at. I have compared it with the hit-and-run injury incidents for a year and, effectively, this is less than a third of these incidents coming to reach prosecution. I wanted to ask why this rate of prosecution is so low. These are hit-and-runs where people are injured. They are effectively violent crimes. Why is that prosecution rate...

Future Challenges for policing in London (Supplementary) [11]

  • Question by: Andrew Boff
  • Meeting date: 01 November 2018
Andrew Boff AM: Commissioner, do you accept that there are crimes which could have been stopped if we had had in place a domestic abusers register?

Future Challenges for policing in London (Supplementary) [10]

  • Question by: Susan Hall
  • Meeting date: 01 November 2018
Susan Hall AM: Thank you. Mr Mayor, we were questioning Claire Waxman, the Victims Commissioner, yesterday at the Police and Crime Committee. When I asked her how many boroughs she had visited - and she has been in post about 18 months now - we were all surprised to hear that she has been to only four or five. She could not remember but she thought it was four or five. Do you think it would be helpful if she was to make herself better known throughout London?

Future Challenges for policing in London (Supplementary) [9]

  • Question by: Tony Devenish
  • Meeting date: 01 November 2018
Tony Devenish AM: I am sure you will agree with me that meeting future challenges for policing in London includes close working with our wonderful London boroughs, and so I was rather concerned to see that the scheme that was called often ‘two-for-the-price-of-one bobbies’ or formally known as the MPS Patrol Plus scheme may be scrapped. Please reassure me, Commissioner.

Future Challenges for policing in London (Supplementary) [8]

  • Question by: Tom Copley
  • Meeting date: 01 November 2018
Tom Copley AM: My question is to you first of all and it is on the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) investigations process. How do you work with the IOPC to ensure the police are held to account in a just and timely manner?
