One of the concerns I have - because it is vital to Enfield and Haringey with the development of Meridian Water and the Tottenham developments, some of the largest housing schemes for 20 years in London - is that Crossrail 2 will be vital to that. What case are you making both as Mayor and as Chair of TfL to make sure that the Government gives the green light and also that it puts money behind the scheme as well?

My first question is to the Mayor. Going back to a theme that my colleague Assembly Member Shawcross was covering in terms of your achievements, six years on from your first election, only 24% of Tube stations are accessible. Is a Tube network that is largely a no-go area for those with access needs something to be proud of?

Mr Mayor, I think we have to draw an inference from what has been said about fares in this question. That is what the question was originally about. We have to draw the inference that perhaps the Labour Party believes that fares should not have risen at all since 2008 when you took over as Mayor of London. Can I ask if there is any estimate of how much revenue TfL would have had to sacrifice to keep the fares down for such a long period?

Can I raise this with you? Another way of introducing flexibility, Mr Mayor, would be for you to bring in a one-hour bus ticket allowing passengers to change buses without having to buy and pay for a new ticket. It happens across other European cities. When will you bring in a one-hour bus ticket for passengers in London?

Another way of flexible ticketing is through using caps on Oyster. When can passengers expect to see a weekly cap on Oyster?

Steve O’Connell AM: If I could ask a question on a slightly more positive note, the other side of the coin, getting away from nutrition and American multinational companies, is about activity and exercise. Professor the Lord Darzi (Chair, London Health Commission): Absolutely. Steve O’Connell AM: That is something I would like you to comment on because there has been for far too long a generational shift in schools perhaps away from good activities, particularly in schools in areas of deprivation, it often is the case. Will you be commenting and observing on that in your recommendations?

Steve O’Connell AM: It certainly is, as I have said in this Chamber from time to time, that the Mayor gets beaten up around his policy on air quality but it is reassuring to hear that your comments are that we have the right leadership and the right set of proposals, although we do indeed need to accelerate that improvement across London. I pick up your point, which I welcome, that it would be good to perhaps compare and contrast London boroughs and their performance because we very much need to drill down on how boroughs can perform and, in...

Jenny Jones AM: Thank you. Lord Darzi, I think you will find there is a lot of agreement around the table that air pollution is something that really ought to come under your Commission. I did not quite understand. Are you saying that you are undertaking work at the moment on this? You have started work?

• Question by: Joanne McCartney
• Meeting date: 18 June 2014

Joanne McCartney AM: I just want to come back to the role of strategic oversights of health services in London. Lord Darzi, you said earlier that issues cannot be dealt with by local boroughs and commissioning groups or the health and wellbeing boards. You gave estates as an example. You have also stated that one of the legacies of the strategic oversight for London was the reconfiguration of stroke services. I am just wondering, in the future, given that we have national and local, what is there now in London to deliver that pace of change? If we do not...

Murad Qureshi AM: I am just going to bring up issues around the A&E services in London. Is not the ongoing all-year crisis with A&E services in London good evidence that we need pan-London leadership to get the situation under control?
