What are the ODA and LOCOG doing to ensure that the Olympics provide a lasting legacy for London beyond the host boroughs?

Can I press you a bit harder on the document Keep on Running and your advice in it to businesses to reduce non essential journeys and avoid travel where possible. Is there, lurking behind this warning, a real worry in your minds that, despite all the Tube upgrades and all the other measures that have been put in place and the forward planning, the transport infrastructure really is creaking and possibly will not be able to cope?

We have been talking about various obvious areas of legacy but there is one piece of legacy that is to the very front of the Mayor's mind and that is the upgrading of the use of the river and river transport. I must declare an interest of helping him particularly in this. Can I ask you why it is that, in the transport planning, the provision of free travel to Olympic ticket holders on the Underground, the overground and the buses, there does not appear to be any such free travel to encourage people to use the river? As I...

That is not only at the venues but the transportation.

In talking about risks we have to ask you this one. From time to time there has been mention, particularly with the Olympics, of cyber terrorism, the risk of that and the potential chaos that it could cause. The whole business of WikiLeaks in the last few days has raised the spectre of hackers. How far do you believe you are sufficiently prepared to deal with this?

I would like to revert, please, to the question of tickets but, in this context, it is the free tickets. One of the ways in which the Olympics is being sold to London and to the nation is the availability of free tickets. The Mayor has boasted about it. There has been publicity given to free tickets to be allocated to servicemen. In your previous answer on ticketing you said that you cannot say anything about it until you know anything about the demand. One thing that you ought to be able to tell us now is what proportion at...
