    Are you satisfied that the transport infrastructure will cope during the Olympic and Paralympic Games?
  • Risks (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    Paul, you talked about ticketing as one of your financial risks. Can I unpick your objective there on affordability? As I understand it, you are saying that 2.5 million tickets will be at £20 or less. 1.3 million of those are for the 'pay your age' for kids and 1 million are for football, so, by my maths, that leaves just 200,000 available for the whole of the UK for people to bid for for all the Olympic sports other than football. Is that correct?
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    Is not the truth here that there is no planning? This has mushroomed completely out of control. Until we started asking questions you and the Mayor did not know the volume of it. We are told that since we started asking questions he in particular has been amazed at the volume of travelling going on.

    That is not the point I am raising.
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    What is behind it is I do not believe there is actually any monitoring and tracking.
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    Can I return to planning and approval and ask Simon Fletcher what monitoring is done as part of the planning and approval process as to the volume of overseas travel?

    I take it that Jenny is bosom buddies with the Mayor!
  • Strategy for GLA International Relations (Supplementary) [39]

    • Question by: Sally Hamwee
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    I am interested to get a sense of where relations with Europe - or perhaps I should say the rest of Europe at the risk of alienating some people round the Chamber - figure in this. John [Ross], you mentioned the Euro Zone but that is not the whole of Europe. One could talk of the Euro Zone, the EU and Europe. We have the Brussels office costing something over £400,000 a year. Is it that that is working very well and therefore low profile? I would have hoped that the Mayor would set a high priority on good relations...
  • Strategy for GLA International Relations (Supplementary) [44]

    • Question by: Sally Hamwee
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    That thought had actually occurred to me as well, that it is included in the figures, and I think most people would regard it as international.
  • Strategy for GLA International Relations (Supplementary) [46]

    • Question by: Sally Hamwee
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    So this is a relationship between cities, because I was not sure whether promoting our position within the EU came within promotion, which was one of your three top priorities?
