• Question by: Andrew Boff
• Meeting date: 07 September 2016

Could you just run over it for me - because I thought I had the figures and I did not quite believe them and so I must have misheard - the comparison between the number of incidents between 2007 and 2016 and the number of deaths in fires between 2007 and 2016 and the first attendance response times again? Could you just run over those with me again?

I have a question to pick up on my colleague’s point. It strikes me that this recruitment process will limit the people who can be recruited. If you are a senior fire person elsewhere and take this interim role, you will not be able to leave the role you are in.

Certainly when we had the appearance in front of the Assembly in the summer, I think everyone went away thinking, `This is tremendous, everything is on track'. This now seems to bring the confidence that we all had into some question. How can you give us assurances that things really are on track?

Lord Rogers went on record last week criticising the process for the development of the stadium. He claims that the Mayor agrees with him. Does that not lend a tremendous amount of credibility to the fact that there are disputes going on already about the whole process?

Why do you think Mr Lemley gave one set of reasons for leaving London and then another set of reasons on the record, as we have just heard?
