In your response to question 2024/0188, you stated that TfL Buses Incident Response Unit "proactively carry out risk assessment of bus routes, road works and roads used for temporary diversions to ensure continuous safety." However, when, in question 2024/0761, I asked for 'recent examples of 'proactive' risk assessments carried out by the Unit for each of the categories you identified', you responded by providing an example of a 13 February 2024 risk assessment at Temple Fortune Lane in Barnet between Hoop Lane and Finchley Road conducted by a Network Traffic Controller (NTC). Are a "Network Traffic Controller" and "TfL Buses...

Over the years, in your many responses to Mayoral Questions (e.g. questions 2023/0911, 2023/4725 and 2020/2699) you have highlighted the importance of formal tripartite meetings between TfL, the bus operators and Unite the Union as an "established forum...to discuss, inform and consult on matters affecting the common operation of London’s bus network—where—"the Bus Safety Programme is regularly on the agenda" and which provides "an opportunity for unions to raise and discuss safety issues". However, from your recent response to question 2024/0760, can I correctly assume that since 2023 'formal discussions' between bus operators, Unite the Union and TfL are now...

In your response to question 2024/0760, you mention that TfL hosts something called a "Pedal Application Error Steering Group" which holds "formal discussions" and is attended by "Bus Operators and Unite the Union". When was this group created? Please will you provide me with copies of the group's formal (a) terms of reference, (b) founding memoranda and any (c) agendas, (d) minutes, (e) attendance lists and (f) decision memoranda that result from this group's formal discussions?

In your response to question 2024/0759, you state "serious incidents involving buses continue to be investigated separately as part of the Notification and Investigation of Major Incidents (NIMI) process", yet, in your response to (a) questions 2019/17344 and 2019/17333 you make it clear that NIMIs are prepared by the same bus operator that conducted the initial investigation and, (b) to question 2022/5364, TfL's contracted bus operators submit NIMIs for less than 0.5% of the total number of bus crashes recorded by TfL. Bus drivers, in confidence, have provided me with copies of NIMIs and, in my view, these documents essentially...

Do you agree that it would make sense to start the 675 bus 15 minutes earlier from its starting point rather than rerouting it along residential roads and incurring the cost of installing punitive parking restrictions, which local residents strongly oppose?
