Caroline Russell AM: I want to put my question to Daniel Bridge, the Programme Director for the Royal Docks team. City Airport sits in the heart of the Royal Docks Enterprise Zone. What impact is it having on the health of people already living in the area, and are you doing any work to address this?

Zack Polanski AM: My question is also for Daniel. I am speaking to you from the Chamber at City Hall, which is on one of the more notorious public‑private spaces, More London, and we are shortly going to be moving to The Crystal. My first question is: who actually owns the land that The Crystal is on? Is it one of the GLA’s pocket strategic development sites? Is it owned by the developer Advanced Business Park? Is it someone else entirely?

I would like to return to your reasons for leaving TfL early. Obviously there has been a lot of press speculation about the fact that maybe you had disagreed and fallen out with the Mayor. That would not be surprising because I would expect that you would have some disagreements over working together for that amount of time. Could you just tell us what your most significant disagreement has been with the Mayor?

Would anything in that contract prevent you, for example, from revealing details of discussions between yourself and the Mayor on the reasons for you leaving?

Do you accept that the overall package is unprecedented in the public sector in this country, in the settlement of your leaving?

I think the difference may be expressed from our perspective that if it is a private company that is being examined, and the Chief Executive leaves, that is something that is private. However, this is public money. That is why the concern is being expressed as to the full extent of the package that you have enjoyed. From our perspective, one of the things that we would seek to know is this £745,000 bonus payment, which we understand is being paid, is there in addition to that a lump-sum payment to be paid by the 31 March?

Mr Kiley, in answer to my colleague, Bob Blackman, you mentioned that you would not disclose details that affected other personnel. Are there any other members of TfL staff ' either in the Commissioner's office or elsewhere ' who are leaving as a result of your departure? Have you negotiated any pay-offs for them?

The other issue is, as part of the contractual negotiation, which would not be unusual, is there a gagging clause that prevents you discussing the full details of the reasons for you leaving or the other effects of the contract?

The reason that I am interested in that is, is there going to be anything in addition to the fee, which was upfront and we have seen that, up to 90 days, how that is calculated? You are keeping the occupancy of the premises in Belgravia; that is part of the negotiated deal, I take it. Will there be other matters? For example, the council tax on that property, insurance, pension contributions ' will that cover the lot?
