  • Meeting date: 17 October 2010
Can you tell me the budget for (a) total energy and fuel costs, (b) the portion of total energy costs arising from buildings and (c) Carbon Reduction Commitment allowances for the years 2009/10, 2010/11, 2011/12 and 2012/13 broken down for the GLA, LDA, TfL, MPA/MPS and LFEPA? Can you indicate whether the Carbon Reduction Commitment figures take account of the changes announced in the Comprehensive Spending Review?

Climate Change programmes

  • Reference: 2010/3601

Hybrid buses

Air pollution targeted measures

  • Reference: 2010/3599
  • Question by: Darren Johnson
  • Meeting date: 17 October 2010
Given the TfL Board's concerns that 'it is difficult to predict the effectiveness [of dust suppressants on air pollution] in London' and the Commissioner's assurance that 'monitoring [will] evaluate the benefits' why do you say in answer to question 3135/2010 that the trials won't evaluate the impact on air quality? Will we not know if dust suppressants will actually reduce air pollution in London until your annual assessment report appears in early 2012?

Green Enterprise District environmental targets

  • Reference: 2010/3598
  • Question by: Darren Johnson
  • Meeting date: 17 October 2010
A constituent asks, will you set a target for a reduction in carbon emissions, or even for carbon neutrality, for the zones being developed in partnership with the GLA group in the Green Enterprise District?

Biodiversity concerns in Greenwich Park

  • Reference: 2010/3597
  • Question by: Darren Johnson
  • Meeting date: 17 October 2010
In your capacity on the Olympic Board and considering your possible future control of the Royal Parks, can you comment on the controversial use of the wetting agent 'Revolution' in Greenwich Park? I am told it may kill all invertebrates and micro fauna to a depth of one metre, and so might represent a serious threat to biodiversity in a conservation area with important habitats.

Olympic Park contamination

  • Reference: 2010/3596
  • Question by: Darren Johnson
  • Meeting date: 17 October 2010
A constituent asks if you have reconsidered appointing an independent expert to determine legitimacy and safety of works with radioactive contamination on Olympic Park following continued public concern and press coverage?

Nuclear waste trains

  • Reference: 2010/3595
  • Question by: Darren Johnson
  • Meeting date: 17 October 2010
In response to my question 1774/2010 you stated that you would ask "Transport for London to ascertain the factual position on nuclear waste trains during the games from Direct Rail Services". Can you please share this information and tell me whether you, or your deputy mayor for policing have talked to Direct Rail Services or relevant Government departments regarding the question of nuclear waste trains during the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games?

Cycle awareness training for council staff

  • Reference: 2010/3594
  • Question by: Jenny Jones
  • Meeting date: 17 October 2010
Lambeth council trains all its lorry drivers, bus drivers, and 'essential' car users in cycle awareness sessions. What has Transport for London done to encourage other councils to adopt a similar approach and how many have actually done so?
