  • Question and Answer Session: London's Economic Recovery and Business (Supplementary) [20]

    • Question by: Zack Polanski
    • Meeting date: 03 March 2022
    Zack Polanski AM: Luke, I want to continue the conversation about high streets and I also want to bring it back to a conversation we had earlier about smart, privacy‑friendly, fair road user charging. If we look at high streets, we can look at Waltham Forest with the mini‑Holland. The evidence there is clearly that people spend more than when they are on foot than when they are in cars. In fact, TfL’s own research shows that pedestrians spend 40% more than people driving. Now, there are obviously health benefits, environmental benefits and safety benefits to reducing traffic and making...

  • London and Covid-19 Restrictions (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 12 January 2021
    Susan Hall AM: Thank you. Good morning, everybody. My question, please, is to Rajesh Agrawal, our Deputy Mayor for Business. Rajesh, last Tuesday we had a very amicable Budget and Performance [Committee] meeting and the Mayor said, I quote: “There is some good news today from the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The Chancellor this morning has announced an additional grant, which will really help those sectors that we really worry about: retail, hospitality, all those sectors. He has announced a one-off grant today. It is hot off the press. This is a really good piece of news that will be...

  • London and Covid-19 Restrictions (Supplementary) [12]

    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 12 January 2021
    Andrew Boff AM: Mr Agrawal, you mentioned earlier about how the roads were being changed in order to accommodate cyclists and pedestrians. Will the Mayor be taking further into account the interests of disabled people? These changes have actually negatively affected many disabled people, but they have not had the opportunity to comment on them. Can you assure me that things will change in the future, and that disabled people will be fully consulted when changes in the road network are considered?

  • Key Challenges for the London Fire Brigade (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Andrew Dismore
    • Meeting date: 08 February 2018
    Andrew Dismore AM: Thank you, Chair. Could I congratulate you both, the Commissioner on her reappointment, I guess, and Fiona on her forthcoming appointment as Deputy Mayor [for Fire and Resilience]? I am sure - and I know - both of you will do excellent work in those roles. Could I ask Fiona? After the Government refused to provide extra funding for the Brigade post Grenfell either for the extra equipment needed or for the running costs of the Brigade, we would all agree that the Mayor’s decision to step in and provide extra funding for the Brigade and sharing...

  • Key Challenges for the London Fire Brigade (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 08 February 2018
    Susan Hall AM: Thank you. Good morning, both. Fiona, massive congratulations to you. In your opening statement, you said that we are very proud of the Brigade and of course we are, and we were very happy on this side that Mayor Khan decided to do three different reports to see how well the service was doing, given the closure of the stations. Of course, it came out that the LFB was in a very good place and so we were very happy about that. When will you publish the new corporate governance arrangements prior to the abolition of the...

    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 08 February 2018
    Tom Copley AM: Thank you, Chair. Good morning and congratulations to you both. My question is on high-rise building inspections. What progress is being made post the Grenfell Tower fire to ensure the safety of tall buildings in London, including not just council-owned and social housing but also privately-owned housing blocks and non-housing public and commercial buildings?

  • Key Challenges for the London Fire Brigade (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 08 February 2018
    Caroline Russell AM: Commissioner, I wanted to say first of all how powerful it was to hear you speaking about the Firefighting Sexism campaign last week at the Young Women’s Trust event upstairs and how really shocking it was to hear about the very negative reaction from some people on Twitter to the suggestion that Fireman Sam might be renamed ‘Firefighter Sam’. That awful Twitter reaction shows just how much we still have to push for gender equality, as you said in your opening when talking about the importance of gender-neutral language and why your Firefighting Sexism campaign is so...
