Keith Prince AM: Thank you, Chair. May I add my thanks to all the members of the panel for all the work that they are doing across London and helping Londoners. My question is for Mr Bellamy.

What support and service do you feel that you and your unit will be able to give to Outer London Boroughs seeking to re-invigorate district centres and develop key derelict sites?

In 1992 you wrote with Mark Fisher: "Severely limiting cars in London could be effective only if investment were made in high quality public alternatives."

In 1997 you said: "Organisations such as LOTS (Living Over The Shop) claim that at least 200,000 permanent homes could be provided above shops and commercial premises in inner London alone."
