Tree provision

How do you intend to meet your election pledge to plant two million trees by 2020, and will you confirm that no GLA-funded trees have so far been planted under your mayoralty?

Operational Policing

  • Question by: Steve O'Connell

Future of the Metropolitan Police

  • Reference: 2016/3850
  • Question by: Unmesh Desai

With the announcement of the retirement of Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe, what are your priorities for the future of the Metropolitan Police in London?

European Funding

  • Reference: 2016/3846
  • Question by: Tom Copley
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2016
On 13 August 2016 the Chancellor, Phillip Hammond MP, confirmed that all structural and investment fund projects signed prior to the 2016 Autumn Statement (due in December 2016) would be fully funded by the Treasury. However, no guarantee was given for projects signed after the Autumn Statement. As at mid-August 2016, only £44 million (just eight per cent) of ESIF projects had been formally signed in London, leaving £540 million currently yet to be agreed. Are you concerned London is going to lose almost half a billion pounds in funding?

Zero Days of Strikes

  • Reference: 2016/3782
  • Question by: Keith Prince
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2016
In January you said: "As mayor what I'd do is roll up my sleeves and make sure that I'm talking to everyone who runs public transport to make sure there are zero days of strikes." Given the recent strike on the Hammersmith & City and Circle Lines and the upcoming strike over ticket offices, how soon can Londoners expect your sleeve-rolling to begin?

Brexit

  • Reference: 2016/3845
  • Question by: Florence Eshalomi MP
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2016
In light of the EU referendum result and the potential effect this will have on the ability of businesses to source skilled work, do you agree that a complete overhaul of the skills system is required to ensure full investment in the skills of all young Londoners to upskill and nurture existing talent?

Scholarship scheme

  • Reference: 2016/3609
  • Question by: Peter Whittle
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2016
Can I ask the Mayor to consider setting up a mayoral scholarship to help fund talented young people to study in the arts, specifically in areas such as visual art, writing, dance, music and theatre. I'm sure there would be many commercial organisations that would be willing to fund such a programme to help disadvantaged young people into the world of the arts where social mobility has seriously declined.

Private renters

  • Reference: 2016/3630
  • Question by: Siân Berry
  • Meeting date: 19 October 2016
How will you ensure that the concerns of private renters in London are addressed by your housing policies?
