Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [3]

  • Question by: Peter Hulme Cross
  • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
Mr Higgins, you just mentioned the site. You said it was 'highly contaminated'. Those were your words. Now, in marked contrast to your brochure of photographs here, I have got some photographs which actually show the contractors at work. They are digging up, if that is the right phrase, a whole lot of dust which is blowing over the surrounding countryside and the surrounding residential areas. If that site is highly contaminated, don't you think that enormous efforts should be made to damp down the dust and make sure that the dust does not go onto surrounding areas?

  • Meeting date: 25 April 2007
I was going to ask for slightly more than Geoff Pope has requested, which was if you can provide us, at the least, with a breakdown now of the transport costs which are, if you like, capital; the investment in the Jubilee Line upgrade and so on, and the revenue costs which relate to the operational matters that you have described?
