• Question by: James Cleverly
• Meeting date: 17 October 2012

James Cleverly (AM): Thank you, Chair. I had hoped to subtly remind you that my understanding is that Members were here to ask questions of the Mayor and receive answers from the Mayor. Unfortunately, there have been a number of occasions where Labour Members have finished their line of questioning with a statement and you have curtailed the Mayor's attempts to answer the implied questions in those statements. If we are envisaging a change of standing orders where Members are allowed to make parting shots or closing statements, whatever you want to call them, perhaps you could inform the Assembly...

A point of order, Chair.

• Question by: Gareth Bacon MP
• Meeting date: 22 February 2012

My colleague Victoria Borwick is very keen to come to her question, which is the next one on the agenda, so I am going to pull my question, Chair. I am withdrawing my question.

• Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
• Meeting date: 07 September 2011

Can I open this session by putting the question to both of you: what are the key learning points and the next steps arising from the recent public disorder incidents in London? Can I ask the Acting Commissioner to start?

• Meeting date: 07 September 2011

I would like initially to thank you, Commissioner, for ensuring that the borough commanders in my part of London were able to, by having a show of strength, prevent any trouble in any of the boroughs which I represent, and I thank him for that. The question I would like to ask is probably one for Kit. One of the few positive things which has come out of this has been the demonstration that it is possible to cut through the red tape which there habitually is in bringing people to justice. The rapidity, swiftness and certainty of punishment has...

Clearly, it is welcome to have a focus on outer London and my colleagues from Sutton and North Cheam are quick off the mark and have already, as it were, put in for some money even though you have not actually told people what the criteria is. But I, too, am concerned about your funding mechanism. It is one thing to take the money off taxpayers and to grant it to outer London boroughs. It is another to borrow because you have to pay the interest on the borrowing and you have to pay the money back. I am a...

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?

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?

Sally Hamwee (Chair): I explained when I wrote to you ' I think it was before Christmas ' that we would ask about the financial details because it is a very particular, very unusual position that you are in, very much one of public interest. John Biggs (AM): The question was to ask you for a list of the contractual benefits to which you are entitled up to 31 January. Could you tell us how many crates of claret, how many rooms at the Savoy, how many transatlantic flights, how many gold-plated telephones you get as part of your contract?
