I recently hosted an event with the Young Women's Trust at which the participants voted that flexible working and childcare were what they believed would make the biggest difference to achieving equality for women in London.

Brent - Airbnb

  • Reference: 2018/0578
  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 22 February 2018
From local experience, Brent Councillors have raised issues about anti-social behaviour and potential impact on London's housing crisis from Airbnb. Having residential properties used essentially as hotels means less accommodation for daily living and much needed supply of homes. Cities such as New York, Berlin and Paris have some regulations on Airbnb ranging from a complete ban to a day limit on usage as a hotel. How is London protected from abuse of Airbnb type accommodation? What measures are you taking through the London Plan and other means to regulate this?

Future of Bus Countdown Signage in Brent (1)

  • Reference: 2018/0576
  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 22 February 2018
Residents and a Brent Councillor have raised issues about a clear policy statement from TfL regarding bus Countdown signs. From their experience they find the current situation lacking in transparency and proper planning. Can you please provide clarity about the future (provision) of additional countdown signs and maintenance of the existing ones in Brent?

Met Line Extension

  • Reference: 2018/0575
  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 22 February 2018
A number of my Harrow residents and a well-recognised Public Transport Users lobby group are deeply disappointed that you refused the Government's £73 million to help extend the Metropolitan Line. I know that TfL has said that a "detailed review" had been carried and it resulted in the matter being deemed unfit for continuation. I understand that a bus route has been considered but it is not a definite and comparable alternative to the Metropolitan line. Are you able to let me know what is the latest on this? Also, I would strongly urge you to reconsider your position on...

NHS - Organ Donation

  • Reference: 2018/0574
  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 22 February 2018
Almost 4,000 people registered as donors in Harrow last year, contributing to the 1.2 million people nationally who put their name on the list. But statistics show that London, in general, is lagging behind the rest of the country, with just 29 per cent of people on the NHS Organ Donor Register (ODR). This compares to 36 per cent nationally and campaigners are encouraging people to talk openly about organ donation in a bid to smoothen the process of signing up. Will you use your role as Mayor to encourage people to support the campaign?

New Cycle Route: Willesden Junction with Wembley

  • Reference: 2018/0573
  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 22 February 2018
I welcome your proposals for a new cycle route to connect Willesden Junction with Wembley. Together with many cyclists in Brent and London I welcome your proposal for 6 new cycling routes. I would be interested to know how my residents and stakeholders like 'Brent Cyclists' (London Cycling Campaign) will be fully engaged in designing the route and their input throughout the process? What is the consultation/engagement plan for the proposed route in Brent?
