Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Thank you. I have three specific questions I would like to ask you. To fulfil your vision, your modelling shows you are going to need a nursery in place by 2020 and another two years later. I am pleased you have made progress on this in your work. We are rapidly approaching 2018 now. Are you confident the funding is going to be in place and that they will be completed on time?

Given the extensive political opposition to a third runway at Heathrow and the inevitable legal and planning challenges that will arise it is almost certain expansion is unlikely to happen in the foreseeable future at Heathrow. In light of these realities do you believe sufficient attention has been given to improving surface transport to ensure that the significant spare air capacity at existing airports in the south east is fully utilised.

Do you plan to transform TfL so that it no longer requires a public subsidy?

OK. If it was too long-winded, simply, can we have an index of premature deaths from poor air quality against road fatalities in the annual Health, Safety and Environment reports that TfL issue, just as a broad indication of where we are going on this issue?

So, can I ask, one of the concerns, particularly in the recent McNulty Report, was around the ability to close category E ticket offices, which are the smaller ticket offices, but which offer vital assistance to commuters, particularly in my constituency, for example. In that franchise that is coming up in the autumn, the Great Northern, part of Thameslink franchise now, I have Grange Park and Bowes Park that are actually grade E. Are you having an influence in that and can I ask you today, can you ask for conditions for those ticket offices to remain open?

Thank you; that is one down. Now, can I just say to you that the recent YouGov survey commissioned by End Violence Against Women Campaign showed that almost a third of respondents, women aged 18-24, have experienced unwanted sexual attention on London's public transport. So, is it not time for TfL to commit to a zero tolerance sexual harassment awareness campaign, similar to the one run in New York; I do not know if the Mayor saw the campaign ads while he was visiting there recently, but those ads are quite clear.

I think it is very encouraging to hear that actually TfL, you have shifted your position away from what really was a hand-washing of the issue. Can I agree with you, Peter, that these issues can be resolved quite quickly and I would have thought that, if necessary, if you get on the phone to the union and the employers, you could probably get everybody into Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service (ACAS) tomorrow in order to stop the strike on Friday.
