  • Provisions of Consultancy (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2006
    The reason that I am interested in that is, is there going to be anything in addition to the fee, which was upfront and we have seen that, up to 90 days, how that is calculated? You are keeping the occupancy of the premises in Belgravia; that is part of the negotiated deal, I take it. Will there be other matters? For example, the council tax on that property, insurance, pension contributions ' will that cover the lot?

  • Provisions of Consultancy (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2006
    What is the essential difference between what service you are going to be providing as a consultant, and what the role of Peter Hendy is as the Transport Commissioner, and what the role of Redmond O'Neill is as the (GLA's) Executive Director of Public Affairs and Transport? Where is the line between them? Is there a line or is there not?

  • Reasons for your leaving TfL (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2006
    I understand what you have said, and I need not recap it. This is a challenging job but a lot has been done, but there is still more to do. There is much that you could be judged proud of and you are clearly anxious to be still in the policy and the strategic decisions, so to move to a consultant role was a slightly unnatural one for you. I assume that was your state of mind when you signed the new contract: that you were still up for it and ready to go.

  • Silverlink Metro Services (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    Does Professor Glaister's comment accurately reflect the view of the TfL board as far as Congestion Charging is concerned in its purpose?

  • Appointment of Tfl Directors (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    Do I understand that when the Mayor told us that he had agreed with you that he would not appoint anybody to the board that you disapproved of, he was wrong?

  • Appointment of Tfl Directors (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    The Mayor told us that he had given you that assurance. Are you telling us that he has not given you such an assurance?

  • Appointment of Tfl Directors (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    Would you agree that for a chief executive to have a veto over, in effect, the non-executive directors of any organisation would be wholly unacceptable in terms of proper corporate governance?

  • Appointment of Tfl Directors (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    Therefore, the Mayor was wholly misleading us?

  • Appointment of Tfl Directors (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Andrew Pelling
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    I chair the Assembly's Budget Committee and I was quite taken aback by a comment made by the Mayor at the December Budget Committee that an undertaking was given to you when you were appointed that you would have the right of veto over the appointment of board members. My first question is to ask whether or not that statement was accurate. Furthermore, it also strikes me a bit odd to put you in a position as chief executive, where you could turn around to a board member and say, `Well I am pretty tired of this criticism you are...

    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    Does that mean the veto does not exist?
