  • Reference: 2025/2170
  • Question by: Gareth Roberts
  • Meeting date: 19 June 2025
Thank you to your answer to MQ 2025/1108 from Hina Bokhari OBE AM. I understand TfL and the Met Police are working together to build on the Met’s capacity to take enforcement action, so that speeding offences result in action against the driver. What are the timeframes that TfL and the Met are working towards to ensure enforcement against serious speeding on London roads?

Dog Friendly City Hall

  • Reference: 2025/2169
  • Question by: Gareth Roberts
  • Meeting date: 19 June 2025
People would really appreciate it if they could bring their 4-legged friends to City Hall. Additionally, dog-friendly work places boost employee morale, enhance productivity, support a positive work-life balance and foster positive working relations in those offices. Have you considered making City Hall a dog friendly environment for both visitors and staff?

  • Question by: Gareth Roberts
  • Meeting date: 19 June 2025
Thank you to your answer to MQ 2025/1506. With deployment on top of liveried vans, signage is placed around the area to warn people of the technology being used in the vicinity. Will you guarantee that for the sustained period that the camera will be mounted on street furniture, clear signage will be in place to indicate the use of the camera?

New Flight Paths

  • Reference: 2025/2167
  • Question by: Gareth Roberts
  • Meeting date: 19 June 2025
The Government confirmed in this month, June 2025, that new flight paths will be fully operational by the end of 2025. Have you been informed about the impact on London given the 4 airports we have around our city? If so, what changes can we expect across London?

West Cromwell Road Trees

  • Reference: 2025/2166
  • Question by: Gareth Roberts
  • Meeting date: 19 June 2025
Thank you for your answer to MQ 2025/1509. Why was it really necessary to remove healthy trees? Could the improved public open space not be designed in such a way that healthy trees could be retained? Tree removal should be a last resort. Why was there no other option in this case? Growing new trees will take years, potentially decades, to bring back trees to a similar size. How are you assuring yourself that: planning applications reviewed by the GLA sufficiently protect existing trees without having to revert to replacing good trees; and that the last resort principle to protect...

London’s trees in a changing climate

  • Reference: 2025/2165
  • Question by: Gareth Roberts
  • Meeting date: 19 June 2025
Evidence provided by TfL to the London Assembly’s Environment Committee recently confirmed that in 2024/2025 we lost in total 148 trees in London. This is the result of only a small number of trees being planted and a far larger number of trees being removed. We also see a large number of trees being replaced, however, it takes years, even decades for the new trees to grow to a decent size and provide the same benefits provided by the previous trees. How are you assuring yourself that the amount of trees being removed and the amount of trees being replaced...

Canada Water Police Hub

  • Reference: 2025/2163
  • Question by: Gareth Roberts
  • Meeting date: 19 June 2025
I understand that the Canada Water police hub was formerly based in Seven Islands Leisure Centre, in facilities in the Canada Water development. Due to redevelopment, the police were evicted from the premises, but decided not to take up an offer of new premises there, instead opting to base themselves in Borough – over a 20 minute bus ride away. Can you confirm why the offer of new premises was not taken, as this is a serious blow for the local community? I also understand the local Southwark Councillors wrote to you about the issue in April. When can they...
