When the last Government decided to set up LOCOG as a private company rather than a public agency, it was sold as a way of speeding up their procurement. After extensive questioning from all sides of this Assembly, it now appears that the motive may have been to escape the sort of standards of transparency that one would have expected from public bodies. Can you tell me, have you ever expressed dissatisfaction with the timing or quality of the information coming from LOCOG?

I would be very interested, Mr Hendy, to see the results of that study. Just anecdotally, tipper-truck drivers do seem to drive incredibly fast and just from my observation, as somebody who did cycle in this morning, and cycles in to City Hall most days, it desperately needs attention, because there is something desperately wrong with the way in which those vehicles are used on the roads of London.
