  • Question by: David Kurten
  • Meeting date: 05 July 2018
David Kurten AM: It was very good to hear your answers about Brexit earlier, the positivity you had about OPDC going forward and that as we approach Brexit day people are still wanting to invest in London. Obviously, you are concerned about skills. Michael, you half‑answered my question talking about how you are going to be partnering up with West London College and there will be 150 spaces there, but I would be very interested to hear any more details about the opportunities that you have to provide apprenticeships to British kids and kids from London who could gain the...

  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 05 July 2018
Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Since we last met, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) has said that 28% of London’s construction workers are from the European Union (EU).

I was very heartened last year when the Gibb Report said devolution to TfL should happen immediately. I am therefore disappointed they have not yet made that decision. In the statement to Parliament, [The Rt. Hon] Chris Grayling...
