• Question by: Peter Fortune
• Meeting date: 02 September 2021

Peter Fortune AM: This is a question for the Commissioner. Can I also just add to what my colleagues said about welcoming your appointment? Your informed, pragmatic and non-political approach is exactly what we need at this time because there are lots of challenging conversations going on. I am just looking at some data now of increased levels of car use in outer London post-pandemic. There are some big challenges around major infrastructure projects being shelved like the Sutton tram extension. I know there are conversations about reducing some bus frequencies in outer London as well. As a result of...

Siân Berry AM: I would like to start with the Commissioner. On the TfL deal with the Government, one key part of that is the requirement to increase our fares in London by retail price index (RPI) plus 1%. That comes out at 4.8% this year, based on the figure for RPI that came out in July. Are you comfortable that a nurse in zone 6 is going to face an increase in the cost of travel on TfL services of as much as £20 a month according to this arrangement?

• Meeting date: 02 September 2021

Elly Baker AM: My first question is to the Mayor, around service levels and service level reviews. TfL is required to review service levels on London buses, London Underground, and TfL, this month as you know. Does it make sense to review them just six weeks after the easing of restrictions on 19 July?

Shaun Bailey AM: Good morning, Mr Mayor. Good morning, Commissioner. A question to the Mayor. One of the options for Londoners who cannot afford the rise in the ULEZ, the expansion, is to join car clubs, especially in outer London where cars are still quite heavily used. Are we doing enough to promote this kind of activity? Are you working on that?

Susan Hall AM: This is addressed to the Mayor. Good morning. Do you think your Health in All Policies approach was successful when implementing your Street Space schemes across London?

• Question by: Keith Prince
• Meeting date: 10 June 2021

Keith Prince AM (Deputy Chairman): I have a series of questions, mainly for the Commissioner, Andy Byford. Good morning, Andy. As you said earlier, you took over as Commissioner during lockdown, not at the beginning. Were there any processes in place that you changed straight away on your arrival?

• Question by: Nick Rogers
• Meeting date: 10 June 2021

Nicholas Rogers AM: This is a question to Commissioner Byford. Commissioner, could you give us an update, please, on the status of the Piccadilly line signalling upgrade? It is of particular interest to my constituents in Hounslow, and last year your predecessor described it as the number one priority for TfL. Could you give us an update on where we are please?

• Question by: Tony Devenish
• Meeting date: 10 June 2021

Tony Devenish AM: My question is for the Commissioner of TfL, Andy Byford. In the last year, bus services have been a major component of keeping us safe while being transported in London. Do you have any particular changes in mind? What worked well and what did not work well during the crisis?

• Question by: Geoff Pope
• Meeting date: 18 January 2006

Was it your suggestion, the sums of money you were going to acquire as a consultant and the one-off payment? If you add up the sums, as far as we know, you will be earning in the first two years just as much as you were before, but working less. Was that your terms or was that the Mayor's terms?

• Meeting date: 18 January 2006

I would like to return to your reasons for leaving TfL early. Obviously there has been a lot of press speculation about the fact that maybe you had disagreed and fallen out with the Mayor. That would not be surprising because I would expect that you would have some disagreements over working together for that amount of time. Could you just tell us what your most significant disagreement has been with the Mayor?
