  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 06 September 2018
Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Finally, time is money in the construction sector. There will inevitably be an additional cost with this delay. Who is going to be picking up that bill, is it TfL and Londoners or is it going to be the DfT?

  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 06 September 2018
Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Thank you for that. Will the decision to delay the opening until autumn next year [2019] ‑ it would be great to find out which month in autumn ‑ mean further delay in the opening of the other sections and the final full opening of the line in December 2019?

  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 06 September 2018
Mr Mayor, on 25 July there was an item on Crossrail in the private section of the TfL Board, which you chair, as well as the public section. Were any concerns raised?

  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 06 September 2018
Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Thank you. Mr Mayor, just ten weeks ago, in answer to a Mayoral question (MQ), you stated, “The Elizabeth line remains on course to open as planned in December 2018”. The Commissioner, in the TfL Board report of 25 July [2018] stated, “Crossrail remains on course to open as planned in December”. Sir Terry, on 6 June, when the Transport Committee visited Tottenham Court Road with you, you gave me an absolute assurance that the opening of Crossrail would be in December.

Tony Devenish AM: Mr Mayor, by May 2020, of the Government’s £4.82 billion that you have been given to spend on housing, can you give us an idea of how much you think will be spent and how much will be committed by that date, please?

London and Brexit (Supplementary) [2]

  • Question by: Steve O'Connell
  • Meeting date: 13 September 2018
Steve O’Connell AM: It is fair to try to right some of the comments that Andrew Dismore [AM] made. The Commissioner [of Police of the Metropolis] did respond that preparation would have to be made for the potential of no deal and for the fact that there may be some food shortages, etc, but there was language used by Andrew Dismore [AM] that did not fairly encapsulate the response. Mr Mayor, in the premise that if there is a second referendum vote, which I dearly hope there will not be, we have heard from certain speakers that indeed, mild‑mannered though...
