Do we need a London Strategic Health Authority to give leadership and co-ordinate health services across London to address the health needs of London’s diverse population?

• Question by: Fiona Twycross

Fiona Twycross AM: I have a question on co-commissioning. I have a point of clarification before I ask my question which is on co-commissioning which, is about the examples of groups with different needs and whether you have it broken down.

Joanne McCartney AM: I just want to come back to the role of strategic oversights of health services in London. Lord Darzi, you said earlier that issues cannot be dealt with by local boroughs and commissioning groups or the health and wellbeing boards. You gave estates as an example. You have also stated that one of the legacies of the strategic oversight for London was the reconfiguration of stroke services. I am just wondering, in the future, given that we have national and local, what is there now in London to deliver that pace of change? If we do not...

Again, I am very happy to see you around. The question is on your policy and strategy about promoting fair trade products and that is right across the board, not only food and drink, but other products, sporting or otherwise?

I would agree with you. I did anticipate that the previous question would take up time. Indeed our Members were choreographed to take up time on it, which would have meant I would have been here, Chair, so I will have to expel them later! I am very grateful for the reply and I think I did catch its basic contents. I think we all welcome your commitment to legacy although, of course, you will be long gone in this capacity by the time we really discover whether there was a legacy. Do you think there is a tension between...

I have two questions. I think one is for Seb because I know that he has given this commitment to young people. Is there a risk that young people will be squeezed out? It is linked to the ticketing issue. I am just wanting assurance from you, yet again, that there is a plan and that we would never ever sit in our living rooms and see empty seats in any stadia, given that we have got millions of young people in London who could be there taking up those seats. That is, if you like, the back up, but...

My question is to Paul Deighton at LOCOG. We know the Chinese are going to be spending a fortune on the opening ceremony. How much are we actually spending on that?

I am glad to hear that emphasis. The other thing you touched on was TV rights and that clearly is the cash-cow that underlies most of LOCOG's finances and is hopefully subsidising some of the infrastructure works. It is quite probable that this TV deal over the London Olympics in 2012 will be quite a major expansion from what it is at the moment. If the Chinese get hooked on Olympic gold, I think you will have two competing TV markets. What arrangements will there be for us to take a bigger percentage of that rather than take a lump...

OK. Perhaps this next question is to LOCOG. Have you clarified what your expectations are in terms of what the broad percentage targets will be for the management of the waste on the site? How much is going to be incinerated? How much is going to be recycled? Have you got any ideas at all and will that be in the planning?
