* Livingstone served his first term as mayor (2000–04) as an independent, having pushed the official Labour Party candidate, Frank Dobson, into third place behind him and the Conservative candidate, Steve Norris.

† As we shall see in the next chapter, that is exactly what happened in 2010 in the assessment of the scheme for the Comprehensive Spending Review.

‡ So, for example, if the RAB is £1,000m, and the rate of return is assessed at 10 per cent, then the company would be able to raise £100m through landing charges and they would be set accordingly.

§ In the words of Crossrail’s website: ‘Crossrail has… sought to integrate art into the project from the start of construction. Through a range of arts projects varying both in scale and nature, Crossrail is working with both established and emerging artists, international and local, to create an ambitious and diverse art programme that reflects both the Crossrail railway and the city it will eventually serve.’
