Topographical Skills Assessment Centres (2)

  • Reference: 2016/3956
  • Question by: Florence Eshalomi MP
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2016
Throughout summer 2015 TfL conducted a mystery shopping exercise at all accredited topographical assessment centres that resulted in 15 centres having their accreditation suspended and 200 candidates having to re-sit their exams, resulting in a 36% pass rate. Have any further mystery shopper exercises been conducted? What were the results?

Powered Rickshaws

  • Reference: 2016/3949
  • Question by: Florence Eshalomi MP
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2016
I have been asked to put the following question to you by a member of the public: "What is city hall's position on the rising number of G-Tech powered (or similar) rickshaws in central London? Surely, this counts as motorised transport which would require some form of public liability, PCV licensing, taxing, and regulation like other forms of public transport? I'm very much in favour of green transport, but surely this needs attention? Many of these drivers are a danger and a nuisance to other road users, not to mention their own passengers."
