    How concerned are you with the recent performance of London Underground?

    I think that is reassuring and I am sure the IOC and Londoners will be reassured by that. In the event that there is a failure, say, on the Jubilee line during the games and you have people at the Olympic Park wanting to get down to the north Greenwich arena, will you allow spectators to travel for free on the cable car as a quick means to travel?

    That was out of LU's control. Have you assured yourself that measures are in place? We have heard about the blue-light team and all the things you told us last week, and Peter and others have told us.

    I think the last thing any of us want is images being beamed around the world of spectators having to be walked down the tracks and tunnels due to a broken-down train or some signalling problem or whatever, and particularly we have now heard that Jacques Rogge, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) President, may even occasionally be travelling by the Tube thanks to the pressures from you and others.

    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
    Thanks to the pressure by yourself and others no doubt. Are you concerned that such failures on the Underground at Games time could lead to worldwide embarrassment and what are you personally doing to assure yourself that the system is going to be working as well as it can throughout the Games?

    Do you believe that your employment targets for local people will provide the legacy that was promised in Singapore?
  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Just to be absolutely clear, the £1 billion, plus the inflation, will, in your view, not be exceeded in order to build these permanent and temporary facilities and to upgrade and to turn them into legacy mode, is that correct?
  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [25]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    I have got two questions. The first is for John Armitt; could I bring you back to the budget please, and just for clarity I am talking about the £9.3 billion budget. Within that budget you have allocated just over £1 billion for venues. The press reported that the stadium costs have gone up to £500 million and that proved correct. They are also saying that the Aquatics Centre has gone up to £150 million so I am assuming, for the purpose of this discussion, that that is also correct. If that is the case it means that you have...
