  • Transport (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    Can I press you a bit harder on the document Keep on Running and your advice in it to businesses to reduce non essential journeys and avoid travel where possible. Is there, lurking behind this warning, a real worry in your minds that, despite all the Tube upgrades and all the other measures that have been put in place and the forward planning, the transport infrastructure really is creaking and possibly will not be able to cope?

  • Legacy for London (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    We have been talking about various obvious areas of legacy but there is one piece of legacy that is to the very front of the Mayor's mind and that is the upgrading of the use of the river and river transport.

I want assurances from LOCOG we are not going to have the same incident here and there will be the fair availability of reasonably priced tickets, which we all want?

  • Risks (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    In talking about risks we have to ask you this one. From time to time there has been mention, particularly with the Olympics, of cyber terrorism, the risk of that and the potential chaos that it could cause. The whole business of WikiLeaks in the last few days has raised the spectre of hackers. How far do you believe you are sufficiently prepared to deal with this?
