In September I published a report, Radically Normal, making recommendations for how the plans for the future housing on the Olympic Park can be improved. Will you endorse these recommendations and commit to ensuring that more, larger, high-quality family-sized homes are built to the highest environmental standards?

Richard Tracey (AM): Boris, you have heard the discussion in John Biggs' question about the Stadium and indeed Dennis Hone told us at the Budget and Performance Committee that he believed it would be 2015 or 2016 before the Stadium could reopen. Can I ask you as the Chairman of the LLDC as well as the Mayor, will you set an objective of opening it before that point? I quite agree with John Biggs and the point has been made elsewhere. It would be a bit shameful if we could not reopen it before Rio has completely finished its Olympics.

Can I just ask Mary about the LDA's perspective. The Memorandum of Understanding has been renegotiated. We have heard the assurances today about budgets but we clearly do not know what the position will be when we get the final outturn on everything.

It seems like a very good scheme. Can I ask how this funding can be accessed by local communities?

Can I encourage you then? Perhaps you can encourage a different sort of show, because after all the average size of the women in this country is a size 16, so more Rubenesque, can I say, than Picasso or Modigliani. My colleague, on my right here (Tony Arbour AM), actually has declared that he likes the Rubenesque shape rather than the skinny shape. So, can I encourage you perhaps to sponsor one of these. It is lovely. Some of us are really a bit more rounded than others and so it would be really nice to see that sort of...

Sorry, Ms. Reilly, with all due respect, I do not think that Ms. Doocey's question asked any of that, and I do not think you have answered it, because I do not think you have actually referred to the issue that she raises in her last sentence. I would be most obliged if you would refer to that issue.

That is 9,000, of which we have got 23 per cent secured.
