Unmesh Desai AM: Thank you, Chair. Deputy Mayor, because I used my earlier time allocation to put forward the views of New City College, who are based all over London and do some fantastic work, I have a couple of supplementary questions.

Can you remind us how this would assist London’s skills gap? This is about the occupation shortages list.

Unmesh Desai AM: Good morning. If I could ask you, Ms Garner, a straightforward question. Is convergence still central to your long-term plans? Let me tell you why I ask you this question.

Shaun Bailey AM: Good morning to you both. I just want to ask two small, unrelated questions. Earlier on, you said that you had settled all of the legal disputes you had with West Ham. Was there any cost associated with that?
