    Does the Congestion Charge need to change to tackle congestion in central London?
  • Piccadilly Line overcrowding

    • Reference: 2016/0376
    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2016
    The Piccadilly Line suffers from serious overcrowding, particularly the route from Heathrow Airport to central London. This problem may be alleviated by the opening of Crossrail services in 2019, but what plans do you have in the interim to reduce overcrowding on this line?

  • Garden Bridge

    • Reference: 2016/0379
    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2016
    In answer to freedom of information requests (MGLA41215 - 1959 and MGLA211215 - 1781) it has been clarified that the Mayor attended San Francisco in early February 2013 to meet senior representatives of Apple. Can you list everyone who was present at all of the meetings conducted by the Chair of Transport for London during this trip, particularly whether Joanna Lumley or any representatives of Heatherwick Studios were present?
  • Jack Lemley (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    Thank you. My last question is about the budget. I understand that the budget has not been finalised, but you should surely realise that the reason we have so much concern around here is because we have not got any information. The job we are being paid to do is to monitor the delivery of the Games. We cannot actually monitor it if we do not have the budget, because we do not know whether you are going above it or below it. Now you have said that the budget that you have asked for is significantly higher than the...
  • Jack Lemley (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    I would like to know what plans are in place to make sure that the same mistakes do not happen again when there is a new Chairman appointed. I think it is very clear, certainly to me, that Mr Lemley has done much more damage to his own reputation by his extraordinary behaviour since he left, than could ever have been done by the involvement with the Games. I wanted to know how it was going to be made sure that whoever is appointed next time, and whoever is going to appoint them - presumably the Mayor and the Secretary...
  • Budget (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Sally Hamwee
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    A discrete point, as it were. You have mentioned the need for an adequate contingency budget. I do not think any one would argue with that. Are you able to tell us, in terms of the percentage of the whole, what you would regard as an adequate percentage?
  • Transport Safer Neighbourhood Teams (2) (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Graham Tope
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    I take the point, wholly, that the train operating companies should be paying for their policing. Historically they do not. I do not think the public is going to be much impressed by this turf war.
  • Complexity of Police Panels and Committees (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Graham Tope
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    I wholly agree that this is best served to get sorted out pragmatically and at borough level, but can I suggest that it might be helpful, if it is not already happening, for the MPA to take the lead in discussion with what used to be the ALG, London Councils, as I think it is now, to try and start some thinking about how to rationalise what is becoming an increasingly complex consultative structure with often the same people going to lots of meetings saying exactly the same thing.
  • Environment

    • Reference: 2006/0109-1
    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    What estimate have you made of the amount of carbon that will be produced in the construction of the Olympic Park?
