Tony Devenish AM: I have two questions, the first one for Mr Bellamy. Good morning, David. Yesterday TfL put out a press release where it boasted that there is an extra 19,000m 2 of space in central London for cycling and walking that has been created over the last few weeks, ie I presume there is 19,000m 2 roughly less road space. I am glad you mentioned the point of Saturday and the good news that the pubs are opening on Saturday. Do you worry, as some people have said to me, that Saturday will be a tipping point, where...

Shaun Bailey AM: Can I address my question to John Barradell, please. Good morning, John. It is great to see you. Earlier on you talked about everybody being worried about a second outbreak, and of course that is correct, but what constitutes an outbreak? Is there a pre-planned level where something clicks in? Is it based around R rate? Is it based around fatalities? Does that level exist in the mind of the Committee?

I might have to ask elsewhere. Let us get it in context. We now know that he had expressed concerns - I think was your phrase - that the project was not on track. This is not a rogue member of the Board, this is the person who is the Chair of the Authority expressing those concerns. What specifically were the concerns that he raised?

Did you raise any of these concerns at meetings of the Board?

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?

• Question by: Elizabeth Howlett
• Meeting date: 15 November 2006

Thank you very much. Can I pursue the reasons for Mr Lemley leaving? It has been alleged in some media reports - and of course we have no insider knowledge so I say that these are allegations - that he was inclined to blur the edges between Chair and Chief Executive, which must have been very irritating for Mr Higgins. It is also alleged that he was quite happy to pursue some pecuniary interests and was hoping to recruit a rather obscure American company which turned out to be run by a relative. Again, I am saying these are allegations...

We understand that, Sir Roy, but Mr Neill has asked a specific question. I would be grateful if you could address it.

I do not think Mrs Howlett is suggesting that it did come from you. She is just asking if there is any truth in it?
