Okay. When the planning committee looked at the plans very early on, there were a number of things that were not tied up. I can hear, from what you have said, there has been a lot of progress on the legacy items. In the context of an Assembly which is largely - we wish it were wholly - but largely supportive of the Olympic bid, can you just say which areas of legacy development have we not made progress on?

Can I just take you round to the people. One of the riches of the city and one of the riches of the Games pitch is the diversity and the ethnic minority communities that are at the heart of this area of London. What guarantees do they have that they will be seen as part of a future in terms of jobs, or will they only be brought out to serve at the banquets?
