We did, at the last Environment Committee, look at the landfill tax credit issue and we're joining with your officers for an Environment Committee to meet the minister on the subject. Having got the minutes of Havering's Cabinet, I think I have to share Darren's concern because it says very clearly here that they've agreed to suspend the In the Bag scheme. That's what it says in the minutes of the last Cabinet Meeting. So, I have particular concerns given that most boroughs fund recycling either from the £21 million, if they put bids in for it, or prior to...

This is a question that I think Bob would like to have asked if he had had the chance. We were both at a public meeting last night where the B11 bus came up, which I believe Dave Wetzel has already spoken to you about. The B11, as Bob will also confirm, has had difficulties because you moved from going down Knee Hill going on to New Road. I do know that Dave Wetzel made a commitment last night that he would revisit that and go to New Road and drive down it. Perhaps he could drive down it himself...

The question that I am really asking is that in your Noise Strategy - you have just produced a lovely thick Noise Strategy - and on page 55, box 20, you very clearly say that you absolutely endorse full and proper consultation. I have got a number of buses - not just the B11 - where the consultation hasn't happened and the G1 is one where we have particular problems. What are you doing to beef up the consultation given that you have given this big measure of it in your Noise Strategy?

Going back to the tax on south Londoners, the issue that I wanted to get in on is the little bit about the regeneration potential for Mitcham and Streatham. There are real issues for Streatham and south London with ELLX not going ahead and issues around the Thameslink. But you have on the table or you have on the feasibility table, issues around the extension to the Tramlink. I was wanting to know how important is regeneration going to be in your decision-making process about where the Tramlink extensions to Croydon are going to be. There are areas between, say...
