Motions PDF 79 KB Subject: Motions Report to: London Assembly (Plenary) Report of: Executive Director of Secretariat Date: 10 June 2021 Public This report will be considered in public Access: 1. Summary 1.1 The Assembly is asked to consider the motions set out which have been submitted by Assembly Members. 2. Recommendation 2.1 That the Assembly considers the motions submitted by Assembly Members. 3. Issues for Consideration 3.1 The following motion has been proposed in the name of Susan Hall AM and will be seconded by Tony Devenish AM: “This Assembly places on record its disgust and condemnation at the incidents of antisemitism seen across London in recent weeks. Antisemitism has no place in our city, and we stand with all Jewish Londoners at this extremely worrying time. This Assembly calls on the Mayor and the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) to: Commission and publish a specific strategy for tackling antisemitism in London; Conduct a review of the robustness of all MPS responses to all reported incidents of antisemitism in 2021; Ensure the strongest possible action is taken by the MPS against all examples of antisemitism displayed in London in recent weeks, and make clear that such behaviour will not be tolerated in the future; City Hall, The Queen’s Walk, London SE1 2AA Enquiries: 020 7983 4100 www.london.gov.uk v1/2021 Carefully scrutinise future requests for demonstrations to ensure a zero-tolerance approach against any antisemitic speech or imagery, and not approve any future demonstration without sufficient guarantees that such behaviour will not be permitted and will be swiftly dealt with if it arises; Ensure all police officers remain impartial and do not make political gestures whilst on duty, committing to full and thorough investigations of incidents where reports of such behaviour emerge; and Ensure that the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism, as adopted by the Mayor and Assembly, is strongly enforced across London.” 3.2 The following motion has been proposed in the name of Emma Best AM and will be seconded by Caroline Russell AM: “This Assembly believes that all children, irrespective of their background, deserve the right to a happy and safe childhood and that it is incumbent upon the Mayor to ensure that the existing policies of his administration are designed to facilitate such an aim. Therefore, this Assembly notes, with concern, the growing evidence based around Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), recognises the correlation between such experiences and issues such as adult incarceration, unemployment, substance addiction and/or homelessness and suggests that a strong and dedicated focus, by the Mayor and his administration, upon addressing the former would go a significant way to preventing the latter. In support of said focus, this Assembly calls on the Mayor to: Explore options to pilot a Pioneer Community approach and an Adverse Childhood Experiences HUB within London; and To personally meet with a representative of the WAVE Trust who are campaigning for a 70% reduction to the existing levels of children who undergo Multiple Adverse Childhood experiences by 2030.” 3.3 The following motion has been proposed in the name of Joanne McCartney AM and will be seconded by Krupesh Hirani AM: “This Assembly notes the deadline for applying to the EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) is on the 30 June 2021 and is concerned that there are some groups of people are less likely to have applied for EUSS by the June deadline – particularly older EU residents, children, individuals with physical or mental health disabilities, women in relationships involving domestic abuse or Roma people, and that the scheme risks another Windrush scandal. This Assembly calls on the Government to extend the EUSS deadline further to ensure as many EU citizens living in London and the UK as possible have applied. This Assembly also calls on the Mayor to continue promoting the EUSS and supporting EU Londoners to apply to the scheme.” 3.4 The following motion has been proposed in the name of Anne Clarke AM and will be seconded by Léonie Cooper AM: “This Assembly calls on the Mayor to write urgently to the Secretary of State for Housing asking him to amend the Building Safety Bill to protect leaseholders and tenants in buildings of all sizes from costs as a result of EWS1 forms, remediation and mitigations (including waking watches and common alarm systems) in buildings where dangerous cladding or other fire safety defects are present. This Assembly also asks the Mayor to make representations to the Government to meet the increased financial burdens being placed on fire brigades in London and across the country who are undertaking additional building safety checks.” 3.5 The following motion has been proposed in the name of Elly Baker AM and will be seconded by Marina Ahmad AM: “This Assembly notes that the two funding deals agreed between the Government and Transport for London (TfL) were only for 6 months each and did not provide any long- term funding certainty. We further note that both funding agreements have funding conditions attached while private rail companies have received no-strings attached long- term funding settlements. The Assembly notes that 43,000 people are directly employed by the London Underground Investment Programme, with 68 per cent of these jobs being outside of London. The Assembly further notes that TfL believe there are in excess of 80,000 people working for organisations with a significant dependency on TfL in the wider supply chain. The Assembly recalls that in June 2013 the Government provided an unprecedented 6- year settlement for Transport for London from 2015-2021 and we reiterate our calls from 25 February 2021 and 5 November 2020 that the Mayor and the Government need to agree a sustainable, long-term funding settlement for TfL. We call on the Mayor and the Chair of the Assembly to write to the Prime Minister to remind him of his views on long-term funding settlements for TfL while he was Mayor; highlight how properly funding TfL will support the “levelling up” agenda across the UK; and call on him to provide TfL with a long-term funding settlement.” 3.6 The following motion has been proposed in the name of Elly Baker AM and will be seconded by Unmesh Desai AM: “This Assembly notes that on 20 May 2021 the Williams-Shapps Plan for Rail was published by the Government. This Assembly also notes with disappointment that the Government have decided not to build on the success of TfL Rail and the London Overground, which would have led to more efficient rail services throughout the Capital. This Assembly notes that London’s population growth is expected to generate six million additional trips in the city every day by 2041 and because of this, London needs a reliable, efficient transport network to be able to support this growth. This Assembly believes that the Government should hand-over control of all suburban rail lines to Transport for London, which will integrate all rail lines across Greater London into a single, centralised network. The Assembly therefore asks the Secretary of State for Transport to confirm his view that the Government should devolve franchise management to TfL, which has a proven record of delivering to a high standard.” 3.7 The following motion has been proposed in the name of Len Duvall AM and will be seconded by Sakina Sheikh AM: “This Assembly is committed to play our part in making London one of the world’s most age friendly cities. In our pursuit of this aim we will champion the causes of older Londoners, celebrate the contribution of older Londoners and stand up against ageism. We welcome the action taken by the Mayor in considering the needs of older Londoners, including increasing the number of step-free tube stations to over 200, protecting 60-65 travel concessions and supporting voluntary organisations which aim to reduce social isolation during the pandemic. Older Londoners were hit hardest by the health impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. And while the economic impacts of Covid-19 are disproportionally impacting young Londoners, there is also growing evidence that older people are at an increased risk. The Assembly notes the work already undertaken through the Recovery Board in areas including healthy food, digital access and a robust safety net. We call on the Mayor to continue to support older people and ensure they are considered when developing programmes aimed at London’s Recovery from Covid-19.” 3.8 The following motion has been proposed in the name of Zack Polanski AM and will be seconded by Caroline Russell AM: “This Assembly notes the extraordinary challenges faced by care workers since the beginning of the coronavirus crisis, from a lack of suitable Personal Protection Equipment (PPE), and confusion over visitation rules to the sacrifices many of them made in not seeing their own families to protect patients and residents. This Assembly recognises that care workers are our key workers and should be valued as such, however we are also concerned that while the London Living Wage is currently £10.85 per hour, many of London’s care workers earn far below this baseline. A recent employment tribunal found that contractors commissioned by a London council were paid even less than the national minimum wage, in breach of the National Minimum Wage Act. This Assembly calls on the Mayor to write to all London councils to urge them to follow his lead by ensuring that not only is no one directly employed by them paid less than the London Living Wage, but that any service providers or contractors commissioned by councils are also paid the London Living Wage.” 3.9 The following motion has been proposed in the name of Siân Berry AM and will be seconded by Neil Garratt AM: “This Assembly recognises that sunlight and daylight are vital for people’s physical and mental health, as well as for quality of life and the beauty of our city.

How important it is. I'm Peter White, all I have to say about myself is I have done quite a lot of broadcasting on disability issues and we're going to get through as much as we can today.

The group started a year ago and was designed to be a safe space for young people and a chance to chat to local Police and share concerns and ideas. The Police were working with schools. This was happening more now compared to the past but there was always room for improvement. There were 11 young women at the meeting and all felt that they didn’t mind the idea of stop and search and it could make people feel safer but it was important it was done “fairly and politely”. The young people reported that it could be a humiliating interaction and there should be more emphasis on respect and politeness.

  • Masks Must Remain Mandatory to Keep Public Safe, Says Green Party
    Greens express profound disappointment over Labour Party failure to support fair voting system 27 September 2021 The Green Party has criticised the Labour leadership for failing to ensure the party backed a vote to support proportional representation at its conference today [Monday 27 September]. [1] Labour conference defeated the motion after it was sent to a card vote. This came after 150 Constituency Labour Parties submitted motions on the topic and more than 83% of members previously said they support the idea. [2] Zack Polanski, Green Party spokesperson on Democracy and Citizen Engagement, said: “This is a really disappointing decision by the Labour Party which shows a real lack of leadership and vision from the top of the party. “Labour members overwhelmingly support electoral reform, yet Keir Starmer has done next to nothing to ensure that his party’s delegates voted through a motion which could have revolutionised British politics and put an end to the Tory stranglehold on our failed democratic system. “In the conference hall, speaker after speaker argued passionately for Labour to adopt proportional representation in its next manifesto, yet it still did not pass. Without proportional representation and electoral cooperation Labour has an impossible mountain to climb and the country faces another five years of chaos with the Conservatives. “It is clear that British voters want to move on from the failure and division caused by the two-party system, and so it is extremely worrying to see Labour fail to grasp the need for a more cooperative and collaborative form of politics which will benefit everyone.

  • London Assembly: Enfield & Haringey Constituency Green Party Internal Selection Candidate Statements Ronald Stewart
    London Assembly: Enfield & Haringey Constituency Green Party Internal Selection Candidate Statements Ronald Stewart The Greater London Assembly should represent Londoners. With the current Mayor of London representing the City of London above the interests of residents, it is important that Enfield and Haringey people continue to have a loud and effective Green voice. We must retain Green Party representatives to continue the great work of Assembly members Jenny Jones and Darren Johnson. As London Assembly candidate, I will work with Siân Berry, Caroline Russell and the other candidates to keep up awareness and pressure on Green Party issues, including the five key policies: Transport, Air Pollution, Climate Change, Fair Pay, and Housing. I will arrange citizen monitoring of air quality in key locations across Haringey. I will work to ensure that our councils, and the London Pensions Fund Authority, divest from their fossil fuel investments. I will campaign for the government's “living wage” to match the true London Living Wage of £9.15 per hour. I have worked as a local tutor for ten years, building confidence in maths, and I enjoy cycling around to visit students in places including Palmers Green, Muswell Hill, and Manor House. I will be using and supporting Enfield's Mini-Holland to make our city safer and more pleasant for all cyclists and potential cyclists. Being a member of Generation Rent, I've lived in six properties and in three London boroughs since 2005. This gives me a relevant perspective on housing pressures, with conditions getting considerably worse for private tenants and social tenants alike.
