Navin Shah AM (Chair): Thank you very much. Minister Zahawi, I know this morning already you had a very busy schedule. I have heard you on Leading Britain's Conversation (LBC), we have seen you on Sky [Network] Television (TV) and you are here this morning with us. I cannot thank you enough. May I just on behalf of the Assembly if you can spare another minute, ask you a question of reassurance that we are seeking on behalf of Londoners? That is: is London now receiving its fair share of COVID‑19 vaccinations and can we be confident that it will...

David Kurten AM: I would like to ask, yes, Martin Machray if I could, back to the people who were here before. You refer to the vaccine or the injections that people are being given from Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Moderna as vaccines. However, the substances from Pfizer and Moderna are not vaccines, as people understand vaccines. They are experimental Messenger RNA (mRNA) gene technologies. Why do you continue to refer to those two substances and injections as vaccines?

David Kurten AM: Thank you, Chair. I would like to ask Dr Fenton. We heard from the Chair and you earlier about admissions to hospitals with COVID being the highest since the start of the declared pandemic in March 2020. How do total hospital admissions now, this January, compare to last January and other winter seasons before this year?

I have received many concerned enquiries about plans by the Dulwich estate to redevelop part of the playing fields at Judith Kerr Primary School for residential use. Do you support the protection of school playing fields and what considerations would the office of Mayor of London take into account when assessing such a planning referral in the event of a borough being minded to grant permission?

I welcome the principle of extending this bus service to East Dulwich Sainsbury's, which has been requested many times. However, I do share some residents' concerns about the current proposed route for the extended service, which is also proposed for conversion to double deck operation. These involve the use of the northern stretch of Red Post Way, which has been treated with traffic calming measures such as wide pedestrian islands to tackle a previous problem with speeding. Residents value these measures and are concerned about the changes that would be required for Red Post Hill to accommodate double deck vehicles...

Valerie Shawcross CBE AM: Thank you very much, Chair. You mentioned there the proposal by Sadiq Khan to freeze the fares over the next four years if he is elected. I was hoping to find some illumination in this debate between our two parties on the fares issue and this so-called £1.9 billion in the Business Plan. The Business Plan was published yesterday, and it is somewhat of a feng shui Business Plan inasmuch as there are quite a lot of holes and wind blowing through it. There is one page of very, very limited information about financial issues over...
