Nicky Gavron AM: Sir Edward, thank you very much for that introduction. The big headline out of this Plan is that the Mayor’s target is not high enough to meet the housing that London needs. It does not even take the target that is given in his own evidence. We have a housing crisis. Why are you content to move forward with a Plan that does not meet London’s housing need?

• Meeting date: 18 June 2014

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...
