This is a very fast moving emergency situation, so please note that this response was based on the developments and advice given at the time.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, UEFA have made the decision to postpone the Men’s EURO 2020 tournament by a year to 2021. My Major Sports Events Team, working with UEFA and The FA, are now working hard to understand delivery requirements of the rescheduled tournament.

Transport for London (TfL) is aware of Barnet Council’s ambition to rename Brent Cross station and is currently looking into this request. Any change to an existing station’s name would require a significant external financial contribution, as TfL would be required to update all their digital channels, operational and management systems, maps and signage across the entire Tube network.
Furthermore, any agreement to rename the station would also be subject to continued support from the local community and stakeholders. I have asked TfL to keep you updated on their discussions with the London Borough of Barnet on this matter.

Please find attached the information requested.
Safety is Transport for London’s (TfL’s) top priority and it has stringent regulations and standards in place to ensure the safety of customers and staff.
TfL works very closely with the London Fire Brigade (LFB) to identify any issues relating to fire safety. The LFB carries out well over 100 unannounced inspections on London Underground stations every year to identify any potential issues. The majority of these do not result in any action. On a small number of occasions the LFB has taken action, such as issuing TfL with a Notice of Fire Deficiency or an Enforcement Notice.
In these instances, TfL works in close collaboration with the LFB to understand the issues identified and address them quickly. Lessons from the LFB’s action are shared to ensure they are adopted across all stations. This is part of the rigorous management regime which has contributed to TfL’s good safety record.
