  • Borough Command Units (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 25 October 2012
    We accept the view, which has been expressed by the Mayor, which we directly elected members, we take the view that the most important thing for our boroughs is that there is a designated chief officer of whatever rank who is going to be responsible for the borough. That is key to us. If the Mayor says that he is going to do that, we certainly accept that. There is one additional thing that I want to raise with you in relation to this, is it not a fact that in many boroughs, certainly at night, in effect they operate...

  • Borough Command Units (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 25 October 2012
    Obviously you have quite a bit of flexible working between boroughs and within your own service. Are you looking at more flexible working with shared services involving the other emergency services?

  • Review process of LDA funding

    • Reference: 2008/0007
    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Yes. I would like to know exactly how you carried out your investigation; for example, did you interview the whistleblower, Brenda Stern, as to the allegations which she made and which were repeated in the Evening Standard?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [12]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Understood. Then, quite separately, as you also point out in your report, there is a separate police investigation into the Green Badge Taxi School which you are cooperating with?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Yes, thank you very much, so that is an internal review. Your conclusions in the report, which I have read and which were submitted to the LDA Board, really put it in these terms, do they not, as Mike Tuffrey has said; in a nutshell, of the six you concentrated on, four require further work, three of those specifically involve the police and we do not know whether Brixton Base will involve the police or not because it is too early to say yet; you need to do further work. Is that a fair conclusion?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    But none of the organisations have received grants?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Mr Travers, you have already made it clear, and I think it follows, that you did not speak to people who are not employees of the LDA. Does that mean you did not speak to Mr Jasper?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [19]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    So, two thirds of the six you concentrated on require further work. You make the point in your report, 'Further work is required in respect of four organisations including referral to police and no conclusions are reached in respect of those matters' for the reasons you have sensibly set out?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [23]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Have you referred it then fully to the District Auditor and said, 'We think there is further work that needs to be done'?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [24]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Or any of the people who are involved in the running of the organisations, obviously?
