I will come with you.

What are you going to do about fare evasion? I have in mind particularly bendy buses where there is a perception that because you have three doors and you can enter by any one of them that it is a free ride.

I think issues do not change but people and approaches do. One of the things that Bob [Kiley] used to tell us, and the Mayor also, was that the Commissioner had the power of veto over members of the board of TfL, in effect. Is that a power that you will enjoy or use?

He is not a contractor, so I think that little sneer does not work, Mr Hendy.

One of my concerns is that as the bus fares and Tube fares rise, we are actually going to almost force people back into their cars. That is one of the reasons I so much agreed with you about getting under-16s free on the buses; I thought that was totally inappropriate because it makes buses more crowded for other people who might want to use them. Do you think we are going to see a situation where bus fares and Tube fares mean that it actually is worth paying the Congestion Charge and using private cars again?

The Greens have been working on pushing walking and cycling up the agenda. What would you say to Peter Hendy about the biggest change that you could make to walking and cycling? Are there any specific measures he could take to radically change the London streetscape from that point of view?

If you will be indulgent, I just want to say something before I ask my question. When we all came onto the Assembly I think all of us knew that London's transport had years of under-investment and was in a terrific mess. Many of us had looked to New York and the subway and how it had been saved and improved out of recognition, so that when Bob Kiley agreed ' I think it was that way round ' to be TfL's Commissioner, many of us felt it to be an inspired appointment. Of course, there was much more to...

During the time that you have been resident at the house, there have been various expenditures on it. I believe the total, if my information is correct, comes to just over £138,000. Some of that has been external work and some of that has been internal work, but that does seem to be an inordinately large sum considering that when the house was purchased it was described as being restored and modernised to an exceptionally high standard.

You had a new roof, but obviously that has to be fixed. Nevertheless, £108,000 for external maintenance seems a huge sum even if you had a new roof and had it painted twice.

Do you understand our concern, Mr Kiley, that you are living in a house rent-free that according to the Mayor's figures could be rented on the open market for £2,000 a week? Up to the end of your tenure, that would actually bring in or save the taxpayer £250,000 specifically at a time when there are 60,000 families in temporary accommodation, and doctors, nurses, care workers, etc., cannot afford to live anywhere near their place of work. Is this not taking accommodation for key workers to ridiculous heights?
