Campaigning probably is not enough. In fact, why do you not lobby Government to put something through Parliament, because this is something that is happening all over Britain? London, I think, is leading the way, but you could put a bill through Parliament yourself. As I said, you are getting a Food Strategy soon that is going to say that we should have more street markets in London, but in fact, Elephant and Castle just down the road is losing a market. Now, Southwark Council is saying, `Oh, it is all right. We have a market in East Street. We...

As we are reviewing certain things in the London Plan, including town centres, can you agree that we look at this in the context of that and see what mechanisms we can come up with? That is in addition to what you have just suggested.

You actually helped Stratford be a clone-town Britain centre. That was that terrible development that is going ahead.

• Question by: Jenny Jones
• Meeting date: 22 June 2005

We have just produced an excellent report ' you know how good our reports are ' about the real problems that we have in London, because since 2000, 14 major retail developments of the sort that have been called by the New Economics Foundation `clone-town Britain' have gone ahead in London or are in the pipeline.

One might be TfL's proposal to have a hybrid process, because that means you introduce batteries, and that can be a way, later, we can introduce fuel cells. The Hydrogen Partnership is also working on introducing hydrogen into the internal combustion engine ' not using CNG, but reformed natural gas.

Would you prioritise those routes that are exceeding the current EU safe air-quality limits and breaking the law first?

• Question by: Murad Qureshi
• Meeting date: 22 June 2005

I would like to go back to where we were in the morning with the London Climate Change Agency, and whether you envisage a role being played by them to develop alternative fuels in London. I know TfL have the London Hydrogen Partnership, where they are working with the private sector. I just wondered whether that is another goal that we would like to achieve through the set up of the London Climate Change Agency?
