So, as far you are concerned, with the exception of the ones that have been referred to the police, is this the end of the matter?

Finally in terms of process, you mentioned that you have interviewed or taken evidence of the internal issues within the LDA and the people that currently work for the LDA. How many people are there that have left the LDA that were involved in these particular allegations that have therefore obviously not been interviewed or reviewed?

It would be premature, would it not?

You have mentioned, Andrew, that this is your review. I want to be absolutely clear what the status of the District Auditor is in it now. Have you asked the District Auditor to do any further work or investigations?

First of all a specific point: there are standard phrases which occur in a number of paragraphs of the review, one that the review has identified weaknesses, in effect, in procedures which are now being addressed and, second, the point is made, I think, on three or four occasions about the way in which the Mayoral advisory role is conducted in respect of programme delivery should be clarified. What specific steps are you taking to carry forward those conclusions?

Is this information going to be made available to us, that information which you have just said, 'You can see'?

The truth of the matter is, and this really is to the Deputy Mayor, that this was a publicity campaign. There was never any belief that there would be a substantial take'up, as indeed there was not a substantial take-up. It is a fact that every single one of the campaigns that you have had which do not involve compulsion relating to saving energy has been a complete failure. I wonder if I can put to you the amount of money that you have spent on Recycle for London; the Mayor has spent almost £1 million on this over the...

I was just wondering about these light bulbs. Nicky, have you completely gone over to these hideous new light bulbs? Has your house completely gone over to them now?

• Question by: Angie Bray
• Meeting date: 16 January 2008

It is very important that people have a practical solution to these light bulbs. I am genuinely asking whether we are going to get some improvements in the light bulb that might persuade people that they are not such a disastrous thing to move over to. That is what I am trying to get at.

It's very interested to hear you say that all of this is supposed to encourage people to take up these things. The total number of people who have actually taken up the insulation grants so far is barely 3,000 homes of the 30,000. The thing you principally have been trumpeting to make Londoners aware of how they can cut carbon issues has related to the exchange of light bulbs. Now the Mayor in his press release predicted that there was going to be a 60% take up of London's population of that; that is around four million people. I wonder...
