All other Members were present. The Chair welcomed everyone to the meeting. On behalf of the Board, he expressed his continued thanks to all staff and contractors for their response to the Covid-19 pandemic and their work to lead London and the country back to recovery. The Chair informed the Board that people associated with TfL had received awards in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list. The former Commissioner, Mike Brown, was honoured with a CBE for his services to London. He had displayed exceptional leadership and vision during his time at TfL and his recognition was very well deserved. One of the Government’s Special Representatives on the Board, Clare Moriarty, had been awarded a DCB for her public service. The Chair paid tribute to Ibrar Karam, known as Akram, who was awarded a British Empire Medal in recognition for his outstanding work and dedication relating to Dial-a-Ride services and supporting the local community during the pandemic. Akram had led on repurposing the Dial-a-Ride services to help with efforts to deliver food and shopping to vulnerable people, including hot food to those shielding and people working for the local NHS trust. He also partnered with the London Emergency Planning Group to organise deliveries of PPE, pharmaceuticals and other needs to NHS hubs and essential workers. Akram had personally designed the support programmes and rapidly scaled them up to meet demand, and had received glowing feedback for his efforts to ensure those in need got the support they sought. The Board agreed that Akram’s inspiring adaptation of the Dial-a-Ride service and the efforts of all staff at Dial-a- Ride was testament to the values of community and support that lay at the heart of London. The Chair informed Members that he had held discussions and been in correspondence with the Secretary of State for Transport on the need for TfL to receive an 18-month funding package to provide time to agree a sustainable funding model for the future.
