Tom Copley AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I wanted to ask you about the levels of affordable housing and specifically the London Affordable [Living] Rent which is the Mayor’s new form of tenure that is going to be benchmarked at social rent levels. Are you going to have a target specifically for London Affordable Rent across the OPDC site?

Last week it was revealed that there were over 3,000 train journeys where Londoners could have claimed compensation because their train was late or cancelled. But only 15% of people who could claim actually did. Do you think that train operators and TfL should do more to promote the fact that commuters can receive compensation for late or cancelled journeys?

What progress have you made in lobbying the government to implement this change?

I am sure we will all feel completely safe in the hands of developers here in London, especially putting in an environmental project that they probably do not have very much sympathy for in the first place.

What you actually said to Jenny (Jones) was that the flood defences will have to be improved because of environmental factors: global warming, sinking land, and the fact that the risk will have increased by 2030. Of course, we do not just flick a switch and the risk doubles in 2030; the risk is increasing all the time incrementally towards that. But you did not say anything, with respect, about the risk management element, which has to take into account the value of what you are protecting as well as the risk of something happening.
