  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 21 January 2021
TfL’s website currently states that “Due to unprecedented demand and limited funds, the Scrappage Scheme is currently suspended for van applications.” Will you clarify whether the scheme will re-open for van applications as is suggested by the repeated use of the term ‘suspended’ by TfL, as opposed to ‘ended”?

Dean Street ticket hall at Crossrail Tottenham Court Road station

  • Reference: 2021/0085
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 21 January 2021
Further to my question 2020/3268 you stated: “The investigations into the Tottenham Court Road station roof slab leaks are ongoing, and the root cause is yet to be determined. It is not possible to know the full extent of the rectification works until the root cause is established, or therefore to estimate the total costs required to rectify the issue. This will be known once investigations have concluded.” Please clarify whether the investigations have now concluded. If they have concluded, please provide in full the information that was requested in question 2020/3268. If the investigations have not yet been completed...

Record of Inquest of Ella Kissi-Debrah (2)

  • Reference: 2021/0082
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 21 January 2021
Are you satisfied that every (a) Lewisham child and adult, and (b) London child and adult is not being exposed to levels of Nitrogen Dioxide and Particulate Matter in excess of World Health Organization Guidelines that the Coroner recorded “possibly contributed” to Ella Kissi-Debrah’s death?

Record of Inquest of Ella Kissi-Debrah (1)

  • Reference: 2021/0081
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 21 January 2021
The Coroner’s record stated that Ella’s mother was not given information about the health risks of air pollution to exacerbate asthma, highlighting that if such information had been given “she would have taken steps which might have prevented Ella’s death.” Are you convinced that sufficient measures are now in place to provide relevant information to the public and especially parents about the health risks of air pollution, or do you believe further measures are now needed following the Coroner’s record of the inquest into the death of Ella Kissi-Debrah?
