Navin Shah AM: In 2006, 45 out of 270 or 17% of Tube stations were step‑free. As of November last year, there are 66 step‑free Tube stations. That is 24% overall. This is an increase of 7% over nine years or so. Mr Mayor, do you think that this is a good enough increase in eight years? Not really a great legacy to leave behind, is it, on an important issue like this?
Can you confirm that you have sufficient contingency funding and that will cover any slippage or any delays in programme or additional costs and that, therefore, there will be no requirement for building from the public purse or any other source?
