Susan Hall AM: Thank you, Chair. This is to Mary [Harpley]. I am sorry if the precise figure was mentioned earlier but I did not catch it if it was. Niran [Mothada] specifically referred to the commitment to the Green New Deal. If I recall, the Mayor put aside or committed £50 million to it at the last minute in the budget in February. Can you confirm what level of funding you are looking at for this at the moment given our uncertain finances, please?

• Meeting date: 15 October 2003

The Transport package for the bid gives the impression of gathering together existing transport projects (some of them highly speculative and with no guarantee of funding or necessary legislative time) and giving them a rather spurious "Olympic" gloss. Why would IOC take this package seriously? .

Are you all satisfied with the proposed financing arrangements for the Games themselves?
