Thank you for your answer to my question 2022/1883 asking about Transport for London (TfL) licensed private hire drivers who had their licenses suspended or revoked by TfL between 1 January 2020 and 30 April 2022 potentially related to a private hire operator's facial recognition identity check. To help Londoners understand the processes involved, will you consider re-examining these 358 cases and telling me how many of these TfL decisions were solely based on facial recognition identity checks by private hire operators?

Thank you for your answer to my question 2022/1883 asking about Transport for London (TfL) licensed private hire drivers who had their licenses suspended or revoked by TfL between 1 January 2020 and 30 April 2022 potentially related to a private hire operator's facial recognition identity check. Given Microsoft’s subsequent withdrawal of the facial recognition technology used by Uber, what safeguards and precautions have you taken to ensure that unreliable technology isn’t leading to licenses being suspended or revoked?

The Project Agreement schedule 20, which covers payments, is completely redacted (https://content.tfl.gov.uk/silvertown-tunnel-schedule-20-payment-mechan…), but could you confirm that this initial payment is set at this cash amount and not index linked from the date of signing the agreement in 2019?

Your Good Growth By Design Forward Plan, published in May 2022, emphasises the importance of an: “inclusive recovery from a pandemic that has highlighted inequalities in the capital and the need to counter racism and other forms of prejudice in the built environment.” Given the ongoing disproportionate impact of demolition on displacing Londoners from African, Caribbean, Asian, Latino and other minority ethnic backgrounds, how will you improve your estate redevelopment policies to ensure that this aspect of racism in the built environment is addressed?
