A Review of Bus Driver Duty Cards and a Bus Company Operating Agreements reveals that, over the years, the paid time allotted by TfL for First Use Checks at the beginning of a bus driver's shift and Vehicle Handover Checks at the end of a bus driver's shift has shrunk by a third (5 minutes). What evidence can you provide to show that 10 minutes is sufficient paid time to allow for a bus driver to sign in, find the bus, conduct a walk around check, report any issues and then leave the bus garage? Similarly, what evidence can you...

Further to Questions 2017/0468 (20 Feb 2017), 2017/1687 and 2017/1968 (22 March 2017) I note that, on 13 July 2017, TfL published an anonymised version of a single bit of IBBG Data on the bottom-third of page 17 of Item 12 in a report made to its Customer Service and Operational Performance Panel. Does this action qualify as fulfilment of your agreement to my three requests that IBBG Data be published in 'anonymised form so that London's performance can be compared with other cities'?

One reason given for the plan to cease AGA's services at Edmonton Green is that longer trains will be running on the service and the platform at Edmonton Green is too short. Would selective door opening be feasible, and are there steps TfL would need to take to facilitate this?

The transport impacts of AGA's trains not stopping at Edmonton Green would also undermine regeneration in Tottenham and Enfield. Will you ask TfL to provide information, such as rail modelling, of what the effects could be, including on the PTAL?

Abellio Greater Anglia's timetable for next year shows an intention to stop running trains to Edmonton Green station, despite it being required by its franchise. This would put great pressure on London Overground services operating at that station and services in the Enfield and Tottenham areas generally, which have seen a huge growth in passengers in recent years. Will you write to the Secretary of State requesting he directs AGA to stick to the franchise requirements?

How much did RT pay TfL for the adverts?

• Reference: 2017/4201
• Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
• Meeting date: 16 November 2017

RT (formerly Russia Today) has a series of controversial adverts on TfL sites across London. TfL's policy allows it to refuse permission to adverts containing 'images or messages which relate to matters of public controversy or sensitivity'. Do you agree that these adverts should not have been permitted, particularly given that RT is funded by the Russian government?

Dame Margaret Hodge's review of the Garden Bridge project raised concerns that the TfL Commissioner had too much delegated authority and that this had undermined accountability. However, the review of the Commissioner's powers by the TfL Board has concluded that he should be given more power. Do you agree with this position?
