Use of anonymised mobile phone data

  • Reference: 2019/11965
  • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
  • Meeting date: 20 June 2019
Assistant Director's decision ADD2345 (30th May 2019) authorises expenditure of up to £45,000 on a month-long trial of anonymised mobile phone data to improve the GLA’s analytical outputs. The decision implies the data is sourced from a single mobile phone network. Given the disparity between the size of the four main mobile networks’ customer bases and any possible variances in their customers’ demographics, are you content that the data being purchased is sufficiently representative of London as a whole, and each borough, to properly underpin this work?

Resolving London’s Teaching Challenges

  • Reference: 2019/9122
  • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
Research by the National Education Union found that as many as 1 in 5 teachers nationally are considering leaving the profession in just 2 years and your previous research has shown London struggles more with teacher retention than elsewhere.

Children’s Future Food Inquiry

  • Reference: 2019/9321
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
I attended the Children’s Future Food Inquiry recently and it was really heart-breaking to hear children’s accounts of being constantly hungry. What impact does food insecurity have on children and young people’s life chances in London?

Real solutions to London’s A&E crisis

  • Reference: 2019/9291
  • Question by: Onkar Sahota
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
The latest NHS figures show more patients than ever before waiting more than four hours in London A&Es. But as my report, “Austerity: overstretching our A&E departments” sets out, this is the tip of the iceberg in terms of falling A&E performance. I welcome your work funding social workers in A&Es and reducing falls through the Fire, Safe and Well Programme. But what more can be done to get London’s struggling A&Es back on track?

  • Reference: 2019/8897
  • Question by: Peter Whittle
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
In the article published under your name in The Independent on 22 March 2019, you called for Article 50 to be revoked, stating: ‘It was possible for the prime minister to secure a Brexit deal that protected our jobs, economy and the rights of EU citizens in the UK while respecting the outcome of the referendum. Britain could have left the institutions of the European Union while remaining in both the customs union and the single market.’ This position is intellectually incoherent, because it champions the interests of big business over the hard-pressed consumer. Added to which, the EU’s customs...

  • Question by: Florence Eshalomi MP
  • Meeting date: 16 May 2019
You have said that, “I will be lobbying the Government for a decent settlement in the Spending Review, not just to pay for future investment in infrastructure from the Sutton tram to the Bakerloo Line Extension to Crossrail 2 and other major projects we need, but to support us in relation to revenue spend as well for Transport for London.” Can you outline a) what investment projects you will be looking for Government support on; and b) what revenue support you would like?
