Beddington Incinerator (1)

  • Reference: 2015/3481
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 21 October 2015
While there is was not a statutory need to complete a Health Impact Assessment as part of the plans for an incinerator at Beddington, the GLA Act 1999 requires Londonwide policies to account for and promote health, and the London Plan also requires consideration of the impact of health and wellbeing on communities to be considered. When you approved the Beddington Incinerator were you satisfied that a Health Impact Assessment had been properly considered?

Air Quality

  • Reference: 2015/3477

Due to the poor air quality in London, would you recommend people wear pollution masks when cycling or walking around the city? Would this be suggested when air pollution alerts are issued?

Garden Bridge

  • Reference: 2015/3475
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 21 October 2015
Do you think it is appropriate to continue pushing ahead with the Garden Bridge when an incoming mayor with a fresh mandate may want to review whether it is offering taxpayers value for money? What would be the cost of scrapping the scheme in May 2015?

Sutton Hospital Site

  • Reference: 2015/3474
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 21 October 2015
Will you look into the issue of derelict and underused public land at the Sutton Hospital site in the Belmont area of Sutton, owned by the Epsom and St Helier Trust? Have you looked into the capacity for land at the Sutton Hospital site being used to provide much needed affordable and social housing? Following news that the £219m redevelopment fund for St Helier has been axed by the Government residents need a future solution that will safeguard services at that hospital and which will utilise spare public land at the Sutton Hospital site.

TfL staff and homelessness

  • Reference: 2015/3473
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 21 October 2015
I recently complained to TfL about a hand written sign at Balham underground station which advised passengers not to give 'money to the beggar who sits on the top step. He causes a dangerous obstruction when customers are exiting the station'. I had a response on the same day to say the sign had been removed, however I wanted to know what advice is given to TfL staff about assisting rough sleepers in and around TfL property.

Norwood Police Station site (2)

  • Reference: 2015/3472
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 21 October 2015
When the Norwood Police Station site was sold were there any stipulations about a claw back clause if the site was not then developed for the use it was sold for, and has STEM faced any penalties for not opening a college here, while there is a high demand for school places in the area?
