Do TfL have separate figures for the number of casualties per kilometre travelled involving bendy buses and cyclists. Do TfL compare these figures with conventional length buses? If not, do you consider that an assessment and comparison might be worth while to see if there is a problem?

Would you be willing to organise a meeting between your office, the PCO, TfL and representatives from the Pedicab operators to discuss the clauses concerning pedicabs and traffic regulations within the London Local Authorities and Transport for London Parlimentary Bill which is being promoted by TfL? Are you happy that this bill strikes the right balance between the Pedicab operators desire to be regulated and a desire to allow this fun and green form of transport to continue?

Can you provide figures for the total number of casualties, covering the period of the last two years, at those identified sites within the LSCP expansion plan which don't yet have a fixed site camera? What action is being taken at these sites in the meantime? Given the LSCP's current expansion timetable, how many estimated KSI's do the partnership anticipate at those sites not covered by fixed cameras in the next three years?

What is the average cost of processing a LSCP penalty notice and can you provide a league table of how this compares to other regional safety camera partnerships? Is the relatively high cost of processing these penalty notices in London a factor in delaying the roll out of cameras to identified sites?

Will you guarantee that the funding stream for TfL led cycle training in schools will continue beyond 2005/06, with the Cycling Centre for Excellence having the ability to meet local demand from parents arising from the school travel plans? Would you consider going further than this and ask TfL to adopt a clear goal of ensuring that there is cycle training for all year 5 and 6 pupils, plus top up training for secondary schools?

In a response to a question from myself regarding the Thames Gateway Bridge (19.06.02), you stated that you had instructed Transport for London to identify any properties it owned on the route from the proposed bridge to Oxleas Wood and to accelerate their immediate sale and disposal so they are not in the public sector. Can you reassure me that any such properties owned by the bodies which make up the Greater London Authority, or any other government agency, have now been disposed of.
