    You have pretty much said that most Londoners and people from Britain are quite tolerant of changing circumstances. The weather in the last couple of weeks --

    Just a quick question in my usual friendly fashion. Many of my constituents and a lot of Londoners will be very anxious that, particularly in the light of the events of the last week - and I know Lord Coe has commented on this already - that any perception that the ORN was some sort of bung to make it easy for rich men in blazers - in some cases corrupt men in blazers - to drive around London - would be very strongly resisted. Dee Doocey (Chair): Your question, Mr Biggs? John Biggs (AM): The question is here. Londoners...

    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    We all wish heartily for a very successful Games but I hope you will understand, therefore, it is important to get the worries out and debated and sorted early in advance of the event itself. As you know the Transport Committee has been doing a scrutiny exercise. We are midway through it and we are due to see you in the New Year. I wanted to put to you some of the worries that seem to be coming up through that process that we need to be resolved. London's councils were very unhappy about the lack of sharing of detailed...

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    John, I want to follow up on my colleague's, Val Shawcross', questions and I want to add the concerns of many of my constituents who, as you know, live in Hackney, Islington and Waltham Forest. I can assure you that, although we can sit here gladly talking about traffic orders and the discussions there, what they are concerned about and what they want to know as soon as possible - and they should be knowing now - is will the orders be over 40 days and nights? I have put that figure together in terms of the Games, the gap...

    • Question by: Richard Barnbrook
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    John picked up on this particular question. With the budget being - I would not say squeezed - and not there for aspects that we feel would be necessary for a secure Olympic Games and with the heightened threat of terrorism taking place, what sort of discussions - I do not want to go into the inside details of Special Branch and all the rest; that would be nonsense - have taken place and what sort of security can you offer to the public both in this country, and people visiting this country, that they will be secure in all...

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    The question is about climate change as a risk; two different aspects of it. One the risk to London's carbon footprint because, however much you are making savings, you are still increasing the carbon. I would like some figures. The second one is the risk of extreme weather events.

    • Question by: Richard Barnbrook
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    If I understand this correctly the significant private sponsors seem to have fallen to one side, especially on two particular major projects. One is the media centre and the -- Richard Barnbrook (AM): The question is - I put the information forward first so I can get the question out of it - with these possible cutbacks what future does the media centre have without private funding?

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    Can I take a different tack with the ticket issue which is very important to sporting fans before transport and getting there. It is the reputational damage risk. The one thing that harmed the Sydney Games was 10,000 Australians, allegedly, applied for free public tickets for one of the triathlon sessions. I want assurances from LOCOG we are not going to have the same incident here and there will be the fair availability of reasonably priced tickets, which we all want?
