I am aware that the GLA will administer the £700 million London share of the Government’s Building Safety Fund, but the capital’s housing associations recently announced that they estimated it would cost around £4billion to replace dangerous cladding on buildings in London. What more are you doing to ensure the capital’s dangerous cladding is removed and replaced as soon as possible so that people are safe in their homes, both in terms of lobbying the Government, but also through your powers and levers as Mayor?

The latest figures released by the Met for FPNs issued during lockdown show that despite only making up around 12% of the population, black individuals account for 26 per cent of the FPNs issued. Additionally, for COVID-19 legislation breaches black individuals have accounted for 31 per cent of all arrests during the lockdown period. Why do you believe this is, and will you be discussing these statistics with the Met Police to try and better understand why this is the case?
