    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 17 June 2015
    Research by my office has discovered that 8.4 million journeys were taken last year by those with nominee passes. This amounts to £22.2m every year in lost fare revenues. Do you think that this is flagrant waste of taxpayers' money in a time of such fiscal constraint?

    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 21 January 2015
    The Waltham Forest Pool and Track redevelopment plan does not include a renewal of the 5m diving board facilities. Is this regrettable and what impact do you think this could have on the Olympic legacy?

    • Meeting date: 16 July 2014
    The provision of cultural opportunities in London’s outer boroughs and the improvement of the accessibility to London’s cultural workforce were two priorities in the Mayor’s 2010 Cultural Strategy. What progress have you made since then, and what are the future goals, for both priorities?

    • Question by: Fiona Twycross

  • Catering at Games' Venues (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2009
    Will your Food Strategy apply to all of the Olympic venues? I mean not just those within the Park but Weybridge, Broxbourne, Dorney Wood, Manchester United's football ground. Will it apply to all of them, even those commercial premises which you are hiring in for the period of the Games?

    • Meeting date: 21 October 2009
    Again, I am very happy to see you around. The question is on your policy and strategy about promoting fair trade products and that is right across the board, not only food and drink, but other products, sporting or otherwise?
