• Meeting date: 06 September 2018

Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Thank you for that. Will the decision to delay the opening until autumn next year [2019] ‑ it would be great to find out which month in autumn ‑ mean further delay in the opening of the other sections and the final full opening of the line in December 2019?

David Kurten AM: Let us come back to the technical aspects. It seems the main problems are getting the three different signalling infrastructures to talk to each other. If you had an extension from Abbey Wood to Ebbsfleet then you would need Crossrail to go onto Southeastern track, which might be a fourth signalling structure. Would it not be? You are shaking your heads.

• Meeting date: 14 November 2012

Jennette Arnold (Chair): The first part of today's meeting is a question and answer (Q&A) session with the London Organising Committee for the Olympic and Paralympic Games. We welcome Lord Coe, Chair of LOCOG, and Lord Deighton. This is I think the first time we have met Lord Deighton since his elevation to the upper house, so we congratulate him on that honour. Lord Deighton, as we know, is the Chief Executive of LOCOG. We are going to hear from, I think, Lord Coe first who is going to just update us in response to some questions that I sent...

In the light of your experiences at LOCOG, what was the one thing you would have done differently?

Thank you, Chair. I should say I was singularly unsuccessful in getting any tickets from the LOCOG website for the simple reason that I used a Visa card and had to go somewhere else, but that is not the gripe I am raising. I think there is a concern about how many tickets the corporate sponsors got on the blue ribbon events. Could you inform us how many they did get during the blue ribbon events, given that the financial contribution from them was actually smaller than that made by council taxpayers and general taxpayers?

Thank you, madam. There is no doubt, we all agree what a phenomenal event it was, well, the two events, the Olympics and the Paralympics. It seems to me rather unfortunate that this is the one thing that seems to be besmirching the phenomenal record because it is being commented on in both the broadcast media and in the written media. There is one thing that I do not quite understand. There was a Twitter feed - I think it was called @2012TicketAlert - which could have directed people to your website when you did have unsold tickets. Is it...
