Fiona Twycross AM: I wanted to correct the impression that was given that the way it has been operating at the moment has been simply about opposition Members [on LFEPA] getting at the Mayor. The fact is that the Mayor has insisted on managing by Direction even when there has not been an impasse, including on issues over which there has been cross‑party agreement by LFEPA Members. I just wondered if you could focus a little bit on what impact the Mayor’s insistence on management by Direction has had. To be honest, we have had Directions on all sorts of...

Richard Tracey AM: Chairman, probably this is one for you as the politician of the two of you. The fact is, surely, that government, particularly local government, has been changing very considerably over recent years. That is accepted. The straight point to you: is it not correct that perhaps LFEPA in its current form is out of date and past its sell‑by date, really?

Fiona Twycross AM: We obviously have to make sensible use of resources in the face of cuts. Some of the new technology that could come online is really interesting and will offer exciting possibilities, but do you agree with the Londoner who contacted me yesterday to say that £283,000 for a website rebuild is bordering on scandalous?

That is very welcome. I think Sir John quite rightly said how important it is that victims continue to receive support. What are we doing to ensure that victims are kept informed of the progress of their case? Hopefully there is a lot of support usually at the beginning and shortly after the incident. It takes quite a long time to go through to judicial disposal. What attention is paid to keeping these victims informed?

What residual powers will be retained by LUL / TfL when the Underground stations are transferred by lease to the private infracos?

The closure of the extremely busy Central Line for the best part of three months, though highly inconvenient, showed that London does not have to come to a halt if a key line is closed down. Do you now believe that TfL could get very much better value for money out of the PPP contracts if work to upgrade the Tube system (track, signalling, stations) were concentrated into periods where lines or sections of line were closed entirely, rather than being restricted to 12.30am 5.30am with all the inefficiencies of stop-start-stop that this entails? .
