Leonie Cooper AM: I want to ask about the environmental sustainability for the Olympic Park sites. Specifically, I want to know about the residential developments and whether you are going to be achieving zero carbon from 2016 ‑ that is what you were expecting ‑ and also on all other developments from 2019. I want to ask a bit about the carbon‑offset fund, because you have started collecting that but you were saying no bids as yet until you had reached a certain level in the fund. Have you reached that level yet and what kind of bids will you...

Leonie Cooper AM: Thank you very much, Chairman. My question is about the leadership, which I have asked about before. Does the OPDC have the right leadership in place to meet the challenges of the next five years?

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...

Leonie Cooper AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I wanted to ask you about progress on dealing with the quite catastrophically large gender pay gap. You had an action plan with a series of 15 different actions, all of which, apart from one, were to be completed before the date of this meeting. I wondered if you could tell us about progress and whether you have completed all of those actions.

Léonie Cooper AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I wondered if I could ask you, Liz, about the governance issues. In particular, are you confident that the OPDC has the correct governance arrangements and the capacity to simultaneously negotiate public land transfer and co-ordinate the development now occurring on private land?

Leonie Cooper AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I wondered if we could come back to the issue of the borough command unit mergers. It has been a particular topic of conversation, as you can imagine, in both Merton and Wandsworth because we are looking at a four‑borough merge, the only one proposed for the whole of London. Some people have raised a number of concerns and issues about it. Some people have raised some potential advantages as they are four fairly compact boroughs, three in outer London and one inner London. They are quite different in some ways. I...

Leonie Cooper AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I want to continue on the subject of the ULEZ. I just wondered if you could explain the current thinking behind the dates for the rollout, which I am now finding slightly complicated? My understanding is that the central London ULEZ is going to start from April 2019 and that the London‑wide ULEZ for noncompliant heavy vehicles such as buses, coaches and lorries is going to start from 2020 and that the inner London ULEZ for all noncompliant vehicles is going to be rolled out from 2021. If my understanding is correct...

Leonie Cooper AM: Thank you, Chairman. Mine is about the exemplar development in terms of the environmental ambitions, and so perhaps Victoria would like to start.

Leonie Cooper AM: Can I just say, Deputy Mayor, that it is very welcome to have you here today and preceded by the Minister? It has been a good morning talking about housing, which is such a crucial issue for our city. At the sharp end of housing is homelessness, which is the area I wanted to ask you about. Assembly Member Copley and I will be moving a motion later on this morning on homelessness because it has been very much on the increase, particularly in London. I just wondered if you had managed to have any discussions with...

How will the Mayor fill the hole in dedicated police officer numbers left by his predecessor, in part due to a number of vacancies for PCSOs, PCs, Inspector, Sergeant and Detective positions?
