  • South London Rail Services

    • Reference: 2007/0175-1
    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    What can TfL do in the short term to make it more likely that the inadequate commuter rail services in South London are improved?

  • South London Rail Services (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    Your betting would be that the re-tendering will proceed on that timescale?

  • South London Rail Services (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    When will that come to a head?

  • South London Rail Services (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    So, again, the timescales for those discussions?

  • South London Rail Services (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    You are aware that there is a lot of unhappiness about the potential closure of the shuttle between Victoria and London Bridge as a result of the Thameslink work. Rather than go into that, will you just give us your reassurance that you know that local opposition to that is very high?

  • South London Rail Services (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    Can I just ask you to be a bit more specific on a couple of those points. The East London Line extension phase two, which, as I understand it, is a relatively small sum of money by the standard of these things, for really just a mile or so of extra track; at what point are we going to know about that? I appreciate that, as it were, warm words are being spoken, but just pin that down for me.

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 05 December 2007
    In relation to the re-tendering of the Southern Railways contract, nobody is saying that that will be handed over to TfL in the way that what you are now calling the Overground was, but, as I understand it, again, there are warm words that the Mayor and TfL are being consulted and so forth. Can you, again, be more precise about TfL's involvement in that re-tendering?

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 17 January 2007
    Then I would like to conclude by pushing you to go further and to be public with people like us and, indeed, the 70,000 contributors so that in things that, as it were, I get, I can see you living out what you say your policy is, which is in the question, that you are progressively improving over time. Currently, I do not see that, and I think you should.

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 17 January 2007
    Thank you, and I welcome you and thank you for coming. This is an important topic if not one that the media particularly get very excited about. This question is all about socially responsible, ethical investment, and you will be aware that there is quite a debate as to whether there is a choice to be made between returns and ethics. My own view and what is behind this question is that if one is positively engaging - which is, I think, what your strategy is - then the two agendas come together, because the long term sustainable return is...

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 17 January 2007
    So if you have an approach or a strategy around engagement on these sorts of issues, is that in the public domain? Again, I could not find if you are engaging, which is the right strategy, what you are actually engaging on. And if you do not, will you promise to put that in the public domain?
