a one stop shop for customers who have an appointment within jobcentre plus premises. An ideal way to cut staff resource and provide a less effective way of dealing with the public by use of call centres and processing sites throughout the uk.
Kate Nicholl: ...who suffer discrimination are watching as they worry for their welfare every day. What are they watching? They are watching us, an Assembly of elected representatives who were put here to do a job, people who can make a difference to the issues that they face daily. What did they get? They got an Assembly paralysed by the DUP, who are prioritising party over people. I understand that there...
Sadiq Khan: ...’ Network is supporting three core recovery missions: support Londoners into good work, implement a Green New Deal, and support opportunities for young people. To help support Londoners into good jobs, the LFB has made a commitment to recruiting, retaining, promoting and upskilling Londoners from underrepresented backgrounds. It has been working to identify and engage with small diverse...
Sadiq Khan: I am concerned that Michael Gove, who was doing a really good job helping leaseholders, is no longer in his job. The key thing is to make sure that whoever succeeds him once there is a new Prime Minister, understands the challenges facing leaseholders, which the Government’s lease hub, which cost £1.2 million, is not addressing because they need more than a hub.
Sadiq Khan: ...for Education, one of them for 36 hours. She has the distinguished record of being the shortest ever member of the Cabinet.

Sadiq Khan: ...and a first-class emergency response, we need more robust vetting of new and serving police officers. Our recruitment process has to be changed to make sure we get only the best people for the job. We need to have far-ranging changes on the misconduct process. That has to happen.

Sadiq Khan: ...for you raising it. Please continue to raise any particular concerns you have around particular stations, but I have been reassured that the posts we are talking about - and they are posts, not jobs, by the way, not people losing their jobs - should not lead to our public transport being any less safe.
Keith Prince: Be clear that I am not making any criticism of the work that Mark did. I thought he did a great job, actually, during his time as Chief Executive, and delivered a project that was clearly behind. Can you confirm, Mr Mayor, that when Mr Wild receives his bonuses that will be a decision that was one which you took and that you have agreed?
Sadiq Khan: ...Government has provided scrappage funding in other cities, including Birmingham, Manchester and Portsmouth, but has not extended the same support for London. We are using our own resources to do a job that should be led by central Government through a targeted national scrappage scheme.
