TfL Finances

  • Reference: 2018/0079
  • Question by: David Kurten
  • Meeting date: 18 January 2018
I was concerned to read the ITV report on 3 January 2018 that 'cash-strapped transport bosses plan to sell part of the London Underground fleet and lease it back to raise money for new tube trains. Transport for London hopes the deal will raise £875m to bankroll new trains on the Piccadilly Line in 2023.' ( http://www.itv.com/news/london/2018-01-03/plan-to-sell-part-of-london-u…) It would be appreciated if the Mayor could elucidate on these plans.

Freemasons and the Police

  • Reference: 2018/0078
  • Question by: Peter Whittle
  • Meeting date: 18 January 2018
I was quite concerned to read in The Guardian on 31 December 2017 to read Steve White, the retiring chair of the Police Federation, claim that Freemasonry was preventing the progress of women and ethnic minorities in policing. What assessment has the Metropolitan Police made of Mr White's statement?

  • Reference: 2018/0077
  • Question by: Peter Whittle
  • Meeting date: 18 January 2018
I was somewhat startled to read in the Daily Mail on 21 December 2017 that Stephen Timms, the Member of Parliament for East Ham, has claimed that acid attack threats have made parts of London 'no go areas'. ( http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5199605/Acid-attack-threats-mak…). Is Mr Timms correct in this assertion?

The Draft London Plan mentions extending the Elizabeth Line from Abbey Wood to Ebbsfleet. What will be the cost of this and who will fund it?

Electric Vehicles (3)

  • Reference: 2018/0073
  • Question by: David Kurten
  • Meeting date: 18 January 2018
Norway, the world's largest market for electric vehicles, recently announced that it will be cutting tax concessions and incentives to buy electric vehicles after realising that their heavier weight causes more damage to roads than conventional vehicles. It has also been hypothesised that more PM2.5's are generated by brake and tyre wear from electric vehicles due their heavier weight. ( http://www.soliftec.com/NonExhaust%20PMs.pdf and https://eandt.theiet.org/content/articles/2017/03/particle-pollution-fr… .)Have you considered the potential of extra road damage and production of PM2.5's in your plans to encourage electric vehicles?
