    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2006
    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?
  • Terms of the termination of your engagement to which TfL have agreed. (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2006
    Do you accept that the overall package is unprecedented in the public sector in this country, in the settlement of your leaving?
  • Terms of the termination of your engagement to which TfL have agreed. (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman

    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?

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2006

    • Question by: Damian Hockney
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2006

What I wanted to know was, apart from when your contract was renewed a year ago, were lawyers involved in the achievement of this recent settlement?
  • Crossrail (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    You started on the subject of the Jubilee Line and I want to continue with that. What is currently proposed in terms of replacement of the signalling equipment, and are you proposing to take any action against the original suppliers?
  • Silverlink Metro Services (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Damian Hockney
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    On your own admission just now, you have made clear that the transport system is not ideal. We have a situation here where people are being asked to pay not only a 60% increase, but with the western extension, TfL's own economic impact assessment makes clear that there will be a reduction in lunch-time customers for restaurants, shift-workers such as cleaners will suffer, `retailers may close down', `retailers may relocate', and delivery costs will be passed to customers.
