Thank you, Chair. I have got a number of questions. Firstly, to go back to what John was talking about, on the people legacy. The Olympic Park set itself benchmarks, as you know, Margaret. I know that you have been aware of the programmes it implemented. The sadness is that those teams may now well disperse. I welcome what you are doing with schools. Would you agree with me that you need also to work with local colleges, in the way that the ODA did, and what you need to do is, in a sense, take the baton and do...

): Thank you, Chair. Jennette Arnold AM and I are the two Constituency Members for the area that you are operating in. I am a bit worried by my question because it covers an area which you have not said anything about. Jennette and I represent the people of that area. You have done a lot of good work on physical infrastructure, stadiums, facilities and park planning but you have said nothing about the communities and how what you are doing is there to address the needs and the potential economic prosperity of those communities. Can you tell us what...

As the representative of Hackney, which you talked about as one of the landowners, and also it is linked to the relationship with communities, can you confirm how you are going to manage the priorities and the ambitions that are held by boroughs like Hackney, and any demands that will come through from the private sector? By this I mean, if we just stay with the Broadcast Centre, you will know, Baroness Ford, that schools and colleges certainly around Hackney have started to look at their curriculum and have started to look forward to the point that they will be...

I never rabbit on! I was very impressed by Kit Malthouse's questions about commerciality. I may not reach the same conclusion as him in applying that to the questions about the Stadium. I think it does present us with some pretty hard challenges. Essentially that it is very difficult to have the intimacy of a football crowd close to the pitch, with an athletics stadium which has to be quite a lot bigger. I had two questions: one - which I am pretty sure you cannot answer, but perhaps we could get an answer to outside of here - is...
