Question by 1

  • Sporting Legacy (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 15 February 2007
    One of the areas, of course, that you refer to, and I think we can build on, is providing training facilities for teams coming to the Olympics. They need first rate facilities, but could be built all over London and therefore be a lasting legacy for Londoners, be they from the west or east, north or south, to participate in sport later. Can you give us a guarantee about what the plan is for rolling that out?
  • Sporting Legacy (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 15 February 2007
    I am moving outside of the five Olympic boroughs to the whole of the rest of London, to look at what the sporting legacy can be for the rest of London.
  • Sporting Legacy

    • Reference: 2007/0016-1
    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 15 February 2007
    There is no evidence from previous Games that the event led to any sustained increase in sports participation. Why should London's Games be different?
  • Investment in Tobacco Companies and the Arms Trade (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 17 January 2007
    Were these rather bizarre people that want to limit your scope for investment to get their way, what would be the financial effect on the pension funds of a blanket ban, say, on any companies that were involved in any form of defence or arms trade, or tobacco for that matter?
  • Investment Decisions (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 17 January 2007
    I just want to follow up on the issues here. If there were blanket bans or your opportunity to invest was fettered in any way, shape or form, would that throw off the 15 year plan to fully funding the plan?
  • Traffic (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 06 December 2006
    Could I take you to outer London as opposed to inner London? What proposals do you have, if any, to improve the North Circular?
  • Metronet (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 06 December 2006
    We have the contract which many people said in the beginning was not going to work and did not have teeth. Would it be fair, from your perspective, to say that those people that said all those things were right in the first place?
  • Metronet (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 06 December 2006
    To summarise what you have said about Metronet, we could say that the performance is bad but not bad enough. Here we have a contract which relies upon a mutual partnership, effectively, but it all seems to be one way traffic. The thing we want to hear is what you are going to do about getting continuous performance improvements from Metronet?
  • No. 6 Bus

    • Reference: 2006/0453-1
    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 06 December 2006
    I have received a large volume of complaints from residents on Donnington Road, Brent, concerning the re-routing of the Number 6 bus on their road. Despite collecting over 150 signatures against this re-routing, which has made the residents lives a misery through increased noise at night, TfL still went ahead with the decision anyway. Will you now undertake to review this routing arrangement, given the objections of local residents, and the detrimental effect it is having on the local area?
  • Jack Lemley (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    Did you raise any of these concerns at meetings of the Board?
