Have you done anything so far?

My question is, are you going to find the money or are you going to make representations to the Government for them to find the money?

Mr Livingstone, you told Jenny Jones that you felt that boroughs would be pleased with the package you were putting together for them. I have to tell you that the London Borough of Havering are concerned about £2.6 million that they say they are owed by Transport for London for work around the de-trunked section of the A13, which was originally promised by the Highways Agency. You will also be aware that Waltham Forest feel you owe them £4 million, and Redbridge feel you owe them £360,000 for work around the construction of the M11 link road - all of...

I hope that the Adshel pilot scheme will work well; I would love to see it happen in south London as well. I also welcome your desire to see the moneys spent on cycling efficiently, and it is quite right to condemn the gesture of green tarmacadam on roads, which does not mean anything to cyclists. But where is it that you would like to lead the public debate? Are you saying that you really want the cycling money improved in districts and town centres, so that cyclists feel more comfortable about cycling there? Where does that fit in with...

So you are saying, in a roundabout way, that Bob Kiley actually loves cyclists, despite giving a signal that he does not?

You are reallocating it to buses and walking, as well as cycling.

• Question by: Nicky Gavron
• Meeting date: 21 November 2001

Will you ensure that, when you are thinking about the reallocation of road space in central London as a result of congestion charging, you give quality space to cyclists; and also, on the back of Louise's suggestion, that we look carefully at the Camden scheme and perhaps copy Copenhagen and other European cities in having a municipal bike scheme from stations in central London?

So Derek Turner is the man, and cyclists can have confidence that he will give it as much priority as TfL's corporate planning indicates it should have.

• Question by: Jenny Jones
• Meeting date: 21 November 2001

The fact is that it is £30 million on this mix of things, which seems a bit cheap to me; then the extra £22 million is for programmes for walking, cycling and town centres. I do not think that we are going to get anywhere near that amount of money. It comes back to this whole question of a lack of strategic thinking. The reason that the LCN has not worked so well - The Chair: Jenny, question, please. Jenny Jones: I have been waiting all morning to get here. The reason that the LCN is not working is because...

We would all like to see Wembley go ahead, but I am sure that, like me, you were horrified by the Select Committee report which has condemned the actions of various people, particularly Chris Smith. I am a little concerned: should we, as the GLA, really be bailing out the FA, who we know is one of the richest sporting organisations in the country? There is still the small matter of the £120 million floating around, and the promise that was made in Chris Smith's kitchen. We understand that they do not have to repay it. Possibly £20 million was...
