Can the Mayor set out a timetable for delivering the remainder of the London Rail Network to London Overground standards, ie to accept Oyster Pay As You Go and provide services, ideally every 15 minutes and not less than 20 minute intervals, at most times every day? What is TfL doing to achieve this?

TfL owns a considerable number of properties along and around the A406 in Enfield. Most house LB Enfield tenants and housing association tenants, many of whom have lived in the properties for a number of years, and provide a valuable stock of social housing in the area. I understand TfL is planning to sell off surplus properties in the future. Can you guarantee that there will be full discussions with LB Enfield and interested housing associations about the disposal of these properties, that all will be done to ensure that those residents living in these properties are able to remain...

Again, do you agree with his depiction of Haringey as 'ghastly'?

Enfield residents living close to Bounds Green tube station are suffering increased parking problems as a result of the introduction of a CPZ over the Borough boundary in Haringey. LB Enfield have not put in a recent bid to TfL for the introduction of a similar scheme, saying unreasonably that they haven't got the money to do a proper assessment and bid, meanwhile residents continue to suffer. Can you please see what can be done to sort this mess out?
