  • Privately owned public green space

    • Reference: 2021/1145
    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 18 March 2021
    There is a vast amount of privately owned green space in London, much of which is there for public amenity, for example, sports fields. However, CPRE London reports that many fields are being deliberately fenced off, stopping pitches from being booked, removing public access and allowing the land to become derelict, with a view to applying for planning permission once five years has passed and Sport England can no longer challenge them. What policy and legal levers are there to challenge private landowners to keep the fields in use for sports, where relevant, and open for public amenity more generally?

  • Housing Floorspace in the Private Rented Sector

    • Reference: 2021/1139
    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 18 March 2021
    A recent study from GLA Housing & Land called ‘An analysis of housing floorspace per person’ (Feb 2021) showed that housing floorspace in the private rented sector in London fell since the 1990s.

  • Question and Answer Session: COVID-19 Recovery - The Next Steps for London (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Peter Whittle
    • Meeting date: 04 March 2021
    Peter Whittle AM: Good morning, Chair. Good morning to the guests. For my question, could I start by asking Matthew about small businesses? It might be most pertinent. It is a question I asked of the Mayor quite recently. What will you do to encourage people to return to their places of work as much as possible? When we are talking about the economic microsystems and ecosystems of the city, it is people not being in offices and so on that basically will cause - and indeed has caused - the system to collapse completely. The point has to be...

  • Question and Answer Session: COVID-19 Recovery - The Next Steps for London (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Peter Whittle
    • Meeting date: 04 March 2021
    Peter Whittle AM: Deputy Mayor, good morning. I noticed that in your reply to one of the Assembly Members you had a good old go at Brexit and the problems faced by musicians. Isn’t wonderful, though, that because we are no longer in the EU, we have had a fantastic rollout of vaccines, 20 million, which includes all of those creative people and includes all of those musicians? Is that not wonderful? Presumably, you are quite happy that we are not in one of those European countries where it has been so lamentable and appalling. Yes or no.
