Chairman, I do not imagine anyone would pretend that you have had the best of relationships with the FBU but there are a number of people on LFEPA who have much closer links with the unions. Do you know of any attempts that they have made to defend the position that was unanimously voted on to union colleagues, or friends that they may have in the unions, to take some of the heat out of this particular issue and ensure that London is protected without a strike?

Could I ask particularly about the efficiency in saving lives, which is something I welcome, as the Chairman said. What is the view of the two of you on what the Government should be doing about much more rigorous and widespread use of sprinklers, for example? The other thing I wanted to ask you about is timber framed buildings, which has been another bone of contention in the whole area in recent years. What are your views on that?

As a user of the Central Line, I just want to assure you that there was actually no positive element to the Chancery Lane incident. My constituency in Redbridge were absolutely outraged when the decision was made to close down the Hainault loop for further engineering work, after the rest of the Line had reopened. We really did wonder why that work could not have been done during the time that the rest of the Line was closed. I am a bit surprised that Lynne is suggesting this and I would like your assurance that you will not take this...

Over the last three years we have seen the Mayor carrying out a number of scurrilous personal attacks against senior Underground staff. What have been the consequences of that and how are you going to patch up that relationship?

Can I ask about some of the deep stations and safety on them? How are you going to ensure passenger safety on the deep stations when Metropolitan Police officers are out of radio contact when they go down there? You do not have to go very deep to be out of contact, such as at St James's which is only two flights of stairs. Also, London Fire Brigade is not contactable below ground in these stations and negotiations have gotten nowhere over the last two and a half years.
