  • Question and Answer Session: London Legacy Development Corporation (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2023
    Shaun Bailey AM: Good morning to both of our guests. Can I start with you, Lord Hendy. On 7 March [2023] you announced a consultation on reducing the size of LLDC from December 2024. It was also confirmed that LLDC would maintain its status with a reconstituted board and a governance structure and a return of planning powers to the constituent boroughs. What were the objectives behind these changes?

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2023
    Caroline Russell AM: Lyn, last time we spoke at the Budget and Performance Committee meeting before Christmas [2022], we established that the LLDC heat network runs on gas. It cannot meet the Mayor’s climate targets and it opens residents up to catastrophic energy bills. We discussed that you somehow have to get rid of all the gas and get heat pumps in to shift all that power to low carbon. I was very glad to hear you tell Assembly Member Cooper just now that Equans has started on the installation of air-source heat pumps. What analysis was done to rule...

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2023
    Unmesh Desai AM: Good morning, Lyn. Good morning, Lord Hendy. If I could ask you, Lyn, how can the return of the planning powers to local boroughs be used as an opportunity to change the way that local residents can be engaged in planning earlier in the process?

    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2023
    Len Duvall OBE AM: On the Stadium, since you have both been in position, we have stabilised the costs around the Stadium. We understand more about what the Stadium can do or cannot do. You have conversations with all the tenants and particularly you have opened up a relationship with the anchor tenant, but there are still legal issues and they are about the contracts that you have between your good selves. What is the future of the Stadium? What does that look like over the coming years? What are the potential options around that? Could you just give us...

    • Question by: Keith Prince
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2023
    Keith Prince AM: A couple of things to start with, Lord Hendy. It is good to see you again. You were saying that you were astonished earlier. Do you honestly believe that such prime real estate where the [Olympic] Games were held would remain fallow even now? If we look around where we are here, if we look at Docklands, Canary Wharf, none of those had the Olympic Games, from memory, but they have all been very successfully developed out.

    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2023
    Len Duvall OBE AM: Let us go back to real estate around the Stadium. Most of that would have been part of the open space and parkland. There are no options and nothing under your plans that you would build on that open space element that is included in your development area.

    • Question by: Hina Bokhari
    • Meeting date: 11 November 2021
    Hina Bokhari AM: I am going to talk about flooding. There are recent issues that I am sure you are aware of that have happened in London. If you were to examine the OPDC website, the most recent information on policies to deal with flooding go back to 2015. Can you provide an update on the development of infrastructure and capacity to deal with flood risk, especially to deal with surface and storm water runoff?

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 11 November 2021
    Shaun Bailey AM: Good morning, Liz and David. On OPDC, I have lived on both sides of that site. I used to live down the Wood Lane end and then up in Harlesden there and so I have a keen interest. Let me just start with the main question. The original aim of the OPDC was to deliver some 25,500 homes. How many now do you expect to deliver and in what timescale?

    • Question by: Neil Garratt
    • Meeting date: 11 November 2021
    Neil Garratt AM: The ambition that you have for this project is pretty obvious from just listening to you this morning, but we know that so far things have not gone brilliantly over at Old Oak and Park Royal. I would like to understand specifically what the Mayor is doing to try to get the whole thing back on track. Just to recap, it is often talked about as the largest regeneration project in Europe. It feels like that launch ambition of five years ago has fizzled out a bit. You mentioned sites and capital. There was a £250 million...
