Thank you. David [Higgins] mentioned the size of the Park earlier, but the new planning application does reduce the amount of open space in the Park by the equivalent of 34 football pitches, from 127 hectares to 109 hectares. The application is smaller than the previous one. We are getting a smaller park are we not?

Just as Bob said the absence of graffiti on the network would give vital reassurance to people in terms of safety, do you not agree that the presence of staff on the stations provides the same sort of vital reassurance to people on safety issues? It is not only going to be psychological; it is also going to be practical. There will be practical benefits of tackling graffiti, safety, crime issues, or whatever and you do need a visible presence there. CCTV cameras in themselves will not be sufficient. You do need to maintain that staff presence.
