The provision of cultural opportunities in London’s outer boroughs and the improvement of the accessibility to London’s cultural workforce were two priorities in the Mayor’s 2010 Cultural Strategy. What progress have you made since then, and what are the future goals, for both priorities?
Why did you choose to update rather than replace or revise Cultural Metropolis? Can we expect further policy developments before the Mayoral election in 2016?
What changes have you made to your policies in order to cope with the increase in cycling and the Mayor’s desire to provide safe routes for people to cycle along?
I was just looking back at Mr Wechsler's answer to the question on water supplies. He talks about a utilities sub-committee for London that was looking at dealing with this problem. Does that committee include representation from suppliers other than Thames Water, because certainly those of us in outer London often have our supplies from other organisations? I live in Romford. I get my supply from Anglian Water.
If we were to, for whatever reason, lose a large amount of Thames Water supply, would they be called on to fill that gap, and would they have the capacity to be able to do that?
