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?

Len Duvall AM: Thank you. Given the Government is floundering on a whole number of issues, including transport, it has sort of lost control of the agenda for change in some ways.

Is it not about time we brought back on the original proposal that TfL co-ordinates London and the South east that enjoyed - enjoyed - cross-party support and from officials but was stopped because of an ideological reason from the DfT by...

What will you seek to do in the forthcoming years to make sure that we...

Len Duvall AM: Thank you very much, Chair. In your policies, you have brought about a reduction of PM 2.5 - so those living within the central ULEZ zone. Have similar benefits been experienced as a result of the expanded ULEZ?

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?
