• Meeting date: 08 February 2018

Leonie Cooper AM: Thank you very much, Chair. Like other Assembly Members, I would like to join with adding my congratulations to both of you. It seems very appropriate in this week, when we have just celebrated the 100th anniversary of some women being given the vote and changes to the Representation of the People Act, to see both a female Commissioner and also yet another woman Deputy Mayor. I am very pleased to say that the Mayor has made that part of his modus operandi , it would be fair to say, in who he has appointed as his...

Florence Eshalomi AM: Good morning to you both. I wanted to add my congratulations to both of you for your new appointments. I do remember watching the tragedy of Grenfell unfold because my son was just a week old and so we were watching the news all night long.

Jennette Arnold OBE AM: Thank you, Acting Chair, Deputy Chairman.

• Meeting date: 08 March 2017

Andrew Dismore AM: Thank you, Chairman. Could I ask David [Bellamy] and Fiona [Fletcher-Smith]? May I explore with you the pros and cons of HS2 terminating temporarily at Old Oak Common? In July last year [2016] the Mayor said, quote: “I have been clear that I would like to understand whether HS2 could terminate at Old Oak on a temporary basis to minimise disruption and allow for a better overall solution for Euston Station. This is something that I am discussing with Transport for London.” Could you confirm what the results of that discussion were and whether Old Oak Common...
