Keith Prince AM: Good morning, Mr Mayor. Good morning, Commissioner. Carrying on from my colleague, Assembly Member [Emma] Best’s question on buses, there is currently a proposal regarding the W12, W13, W14 and the 549. Some of those proposals are good, I have to say, but you are in consultation on those changes, one of which involves deleting one of the services. If the consultation comes back and says that the people are not happy with that, will you give that due consideration or will you just continue with the proposals as set out, Mr Mayor?

Joanne McCartney AM: Thank you. My question is for the Commissioner, and I am going to raise the issue of the Piccadilly line signalling upgrade. It is good to hear that you have better relations with Government than previously. We do know that the new trains will increase capacity on the line by 23 percent, but if it were to be given the go-ahead, the signalling would increase capacity by 64 percent. Can I ask you about the state of those negotiations and are you hopeful that we will get that capital funding?

Joanne McCartney AM: Thank you. Mr Mayor, I think you have clearly set out the triple challenges that we are facing as a city, and you have highlighted that the inner London ULEZ has been extremely well delivered, with some drastic improvements made to air quality. However, many parts of outer London are not blessed with the same extensive public transport links that inner London is, and your MTS is about encouraging people out of cars and on to public transport, or more active travel. What will you seek to do in the forthcoming years to make sure that we...

Keith Prince AM: Thank you, Chair. Mr Mayor, I just want to try to develop a bit more the point that Assembly Member Baker was making, which I thought was a good point about essential journeys. You may recall, Mr Mayor - or do you recall - that at the last People's Question Time (PQT) there was a young lady who stood up, who was a teacher. She turned out to be one of my residents and she -

Joanne McCartney AM: My first question is to the Commissioner and it is regarding TfL’s Capital Plan. I just want to know how the negotiations with Government are going - and I have asked you before - about the Piccadilly line signalling and track, which is getting increasingly old and unreliable, as you told us at our last Transport Committee meeting. Please, could you just give us a brief update?

Keith Prince AM (Deputy Chairman): Mr Mayor, I wonder whether you would agree with me - as sometimes you do - in relation to the Silvertown Tunnel and how important it will be for you to further your goals for walking and cycling. As you know, the Silvertown Tunnel will provide us with a tunnel fit for the 21st century, not one that was designed for the 19th century. One of the biggest benefits will be the fact that we can get a double-decker bus through that. I believe, and I would be grateful if you could confirm, that there...

Keith Prince AM: Good morning, Mr Mayor. I trust you had a good break. Do you believe that you should be doing everything possible to boost London’s economy and help London’s businesses over the coming months and years?
