  • Performance of London Underground (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
    Boris, there is some work going on on the District line at the moment to improve the service, which we are all very pleased about. This I think is really a question for the Commissioner. The work that is going on at the depot in Upminster is proving to be more disruptive to neighbours than they were told it would be, with noise and working for longer hours than they were told would take place, and I think what can fairly be described as an unhelpful attitude from some of the staff in the depot when the neighbours go around...
  • Bow Roundabout - transparency (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
    Assembly Member Jones, no. Sorry, Mr Mayor. You gave a detailed answer to the first question, which was great. You have had now enough time on this, so I want to move on. I just want to find the Standing Order that gives us the gap for the Commissioner who seemed to want to make a statement to come in. There is no Standing Order except that apparently I can make a ruling, so can I just ask the Commissioner if he just wanted to make a statement? He was giving an indication that he wanted to make a statement...
  • Bow Roundabout - transparency (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
    Ok, I am grateful for that. I take it from your reply that the review will look at whether there are other lessons about the way we respond to anxieties without accident records. I share many of Jenny's [Jones] concerns, although I think we need to be cool and calm about this. If people are to blame, then they need to be held to account for that. But we need to see what happens as the inquiries are concluded. My final bit, though: I have cautiously welcomed the changes so far on the basis that they are temporary and they...
  • Government Delivery of Mayoral Policies (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
    You have just said one significant thing that I have not heard before and that is that the Commissioner himself is supportive of this line of policy. Perhaps we could have it on the record from Peter Hendy just how supportive he has because in our approaches to Government, whether it be the Prime Minister or other Cabinet Ministers, what the Commissioner for TfL might say about it would be rather important, I believe.
  • Government Delivery of Mayoral Policies (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
    OK. Just finally - and this is one for Peter as well - if HS2 were to go ahead, have you explored any other options with regards to reducing congestion at Euston at all?
  • Concern (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 20 June 2012
    OK. Could you tell us, you mentioned Harrow on the Hill . There is also a question of Stanmore Station, Mr Mayor, where we have an acute problem of accessibility. Could you give me assurance that you will be making those stations accessible during the term of your office?
  • Surface Transport (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 09 December 2009
    I accept what you are trying to say, or trying to say to us, but I think, in terms of business management - and I do not claim to be a business management expert but it just seems to me common sense - that one man, as managing director, should focus on specific things. Now can I just tell you - you probably know this - from a curriculum vitae from yesterday's seminar upstairs about buses, Mr Brown is said to be in charge of London buses, Public Carriage Office, Dial-a-Ride, Victoria Coach Station, TfL Piers and TfL's corporate interests...
