• Question by: Siân Berry
• Meeting date: 01 July 2021

Siân Berry AM: Coming back to the discussion you had with Assembly Member Bailey on the 2021 to 2026 housing grants and the allocations and profiles for it, you kept saying it was coming in the autumn and I think we know that in the public sector autumn runs from September to the end of December. Will it be closer to September [2021] or December [2021] when we get that profile, presumably in time for the budgets?

• Meeting date: 01 July 2021

Keith Prince AM (Deputy Chairman): Good afternoon, Deputy Mayor. Thank you very much for coming down and visiting the SHC [Partnership] unit at Westminster Abbey yesterday. I am sorry I could not be there. I was at a Transport Committee meeting. You visited the unit, you went into it and you will probably tell me what you felt about it. One of the issues we had is because it is designed to fit on the back of a low loader without a police escort, it does fall just shy of the Mayor’s space standards. This does not seem to be...

Andrew Boff AM: How much would it cost to demolish the Stadium?

• Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
• Meeting date: 05 September 2019

Jennette Arnold OBE AM (Chair): Yes, thank you. Can I start my question to Sir Peter? It is going back to a Plenary Assembly meeting that we had on 2 November 2017. The issue was raised there about the timeline which you are working to in order to return the planning powers that you either see as being on loan or borrowed from the Olympic boroughs of Hackney, Waltham Forest, Newham and Tower Hamlets. I have met with local councillors representing wards in all of these boroughs and spoken to some senior representatives and a group of residents, and they...

Unmesh Desai AM: Good morning. If I could ask you, Ms Garner, a straightforward question. Is convergence still central to your long-term plans? Let me tell you why I ask you this question. As I said, it seems a straightforward, simple question. The last annual update of your performance measures and convergence targets that were reported were in your quarterly performance report in January to March 2016/17.

Joanne McCartney AM: Thank you. I wonder if you could just briefly update me as to whether you are meeting your environment targets.

• Question by: Len Duvall OBE
• Meeting date: 05 September 2019

Len Duvall OBE AM: Thank you very much. Can we go back to the Moore Stephens report? Can you just remind us of the steps that you have taken briefly since they highlighted that your organisation was taking most of the risks around the Stadium, both in capital and in terms of operating cost?

• Question by: Onkar Sahota
• Meeting date: 05 September 2019

Dr Onkar Sahota AM: I am going to talk to you about the provisions of health services in the corporation. The Legacy Communities Scheme proposes that there be five neighbourhoods around Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, but there will be two general practitioner (GP) practices and one walk-in centre. Will that be enough?

• Question by: Navin Shah
• Meeting date: 05 September 2019

Navin Shah AM: Thank you, Chair. It was great to hear the very upbeat comment about progress being made at East Bank in the opening remarks. However, the question is: how are you minimising the potential risks to the plans at East Bank? Again, going back to the risk register from May, there are certainly three major risks which have been identified. What are you doing to actually deal with the major risks involved there?

• Question by: Gareth Bacon MP
• Meeting date: 05 September 2019

Gareth Bacon AM: Thank you, Mr Chairman. There has been a lot of good progress on the Stadium in the last year or so, and the baseball, by the way, I thought was absolutely phenomenal. I have said that to you privately; I will say it now publicly. I thought it was a tremendous innovation, and I look forward to going again next year. Moving away from the Stadium, I want to pick up some of the points that Assembly Member Shah has just been talking about, about the Cultural Quarter. I am going from memory, not from my briefing...
