Why has the cost of the Thames Cable Car increased from £25m in 2010 to the current estimated cost of £60m? Who or what is responsible for the cost increase and what action has been taken as a result of such inaccurate estimates being made? Have the owners of the Excel Exhibition Centre and the O2, who are likely to be the long term beneficiaries of the project, been asked to make any financial contribution to the costs and have they done so? Finally, what was the original business case for this project and is there still a business case?

Do you agree with my constituent who told me that 'it is a disgrace that main line trains will get lifts but the tube will not'?

If so which tube stations will be getting step free access in the next year and which ones will remain without step free access?
