Why were proposals to recruit an interim Commissioner put to the recent meeting of LFEPA's Appointments & Urgency Committee, instead of a proposal to extend the present Commissioner's contract whilst also recruiting a permanent successor?

What progress has been made by the London Fire Brigade in rolling out instant response vehicles?

• Meeting date: 07 September 2016

Could you just run over it for me - because I thought I had the figures and I did not quite believe them and so I must have misheard - the comparison between the number of incidents between 2007 and 2016 and the number of deaths in fires between 2007 and 2016 and the first attendance response times again? Could you just run over those with me again?

I have a question to pick up on my colleague’s point. It strikes me that this recruitment process will limit the people who can be recruited. If you are a senior fire person elsewhere and take this interim role, you will not be able to leave the role you are in. Correct me if I am wrong - and I am prepared to be wrong - but would you not have to convince your own fire authority to loan you to us?

I do echo my colleague’s point. In terms of continuity of personnel, would you not agree with me that when you have senior people doing a job and being accountable, continuity over a period of time is absolutely essential?

How will TfL bear down on fares and introduce more flexible ticketing from January 2015?

Mr Mayor, I think we have to draw an inference from what has been said about fares in this question. That is what the question was originally about. We have to draw the inference that perhaps the Labour Party believes that fares should not have risen at all since 2008 when you took over as Mayor of London. Can I ask if there is any estimate of how much revenue TfL would have had to sacrifice to keep the fares down for such a long period?

I would like to get some idea. Seeing as the headline of the question was “2016 achievements”, I would like to explore some of the things that you feel you are still looking to achieve by 2016, particularly in southeast London, which is the area that I represent. Obviously one of your very high profile transport achievements is the timely introduction of a New Bus for London. I would like to know when we will see more of the elegant and benign transport mode south of the river, particularly southeast London.

Mr Mayor, do you think it is actually important in your pursuit of the Estuary Airport that everybody should be reminded it is not your scheme but is actually Foster’s scheme? I am afraid your scheme we are not talking about much anymore, but it is the Foster’s scheme ‑‑

Boris, a large number of my constituents use the buses to get around boroughs like Havering and Redbridge because the rail links tend to be radial into town. So the announcement you have made today about the progress you are requesting towards resolving the strike is very welcome and I am sure they will be happy to hear that statement. But do you not share my surprise that the unions who were spending July campaigning for large amounts of money for working in the Olympics spent April campaigning for a candidate who was promising to slash public transport fares?
