Electric Vehicles and Air Quality

  • Reference: 2010/4166
  • Question by: Murad Qureshi
  • Meeting date: 15 December 2010
You've repeatedly said you want to make London the electric car capital of the world and have held this programme up as some sort of panacea to solve London's air quality problems, and yet you have reduced your contribution by two thirds - down from £20m to just £7million. You were only putting in a third of the funding in the first place. Where's the other £53 million coming from?

MOLAS

  • Reference: 2010/4165
  • Question by: John Biggs
  • Meeting date: 15 December 2010
Why is the Museum of London Archaelogical Service being 'outsourced'? What will be the form and accountability of the service under the new arrangement? Will not the consequence of this be a greater job insecurity for its highly specialist staff?

20mph zones

  • Reference: 2010/4164
  • Question by: John Biggs
  • Meeting date: 15 December 2010
Would you support, or facilitate, the introduction of a 20mph zone on the Isle of Dogs?

The HMS Ark Royal

  • Reference: 2010/4163
  • Question by: John Biggs
  • Meeting date: 15 December 2010
There is of course a decommissioned aircraft carrier on the Hudson River in New York. Do you support the idea of bringing the Ark Royal, once decommissioned, to London for use as a visitor attraction and do you or your officers have views about how such an exhibit, and the large display space within and upon it, might work?

Horniman and Geffrye Museums

  • Reference: 2010/4162
  • Question by: John Biggs

What actions are you taking in the light of the Government announcement to cease funding these two museums?

Examination in Public

  • Reference: 2010/4161
  • Question by: Nicky Gavron
  • Meeting date: 15 December 2010

Policing 2

  • Reference: 2010/4160
  • Question by: Nicky Gavron
  • Meeting date: 15 December 2010
Does the Mayor accept that the manner in which the most recent student protest (24 November) was policed prevented participants from expressing their right of political protest and their right of free movement?

Policing

  • Reference: 2010/4159
  • Question by: Nicky Gavron

  • Question by: Nicky Gavron
  • Meeting date: 15 December 2010
The post-study work visa will be cut, deterring foreign students from studying in the capital. Has an assessment been made of the impact of this on London's higher education sector and its economy?

  • Question by: Nicky Gavron
  • Meeting date: 15 December 2010
Has there been an assessment of the impacts to business in London of closing the Tier 1 general route on foreign employees looking to extend their visa and if so what are the results of this assessment?
