Can you update the Assembly on the priorities and challenges facing the London Fire Brigade?

• Question by: Anne Clarke
• Meeting date: 09 February 2023

London needs you to deliver a brigade that is trusted to serve and protect our city, but with that, we need to have a workplace where all Londoners feel they can work and thrive, regardless of their background. Can you deliver this?

Thank you. I just want to start by recognising that the Fire Commissioner’s openness and honesty has been really appreciated by all of us in the wake of the Culture Review and the acceptance that you have given the 23 recommendations by Nazir Afzal [OBE, Chair, Independent Review into Culture of London Fire Brigade]. You also publicly apologised to Jaden Francois-Esprit’s mum, Linda, out there at the last FREP Committee meeting on Tuesday. However, Linda has said that she still feels that no one has been held accountable for Jaden’s death, and that the full extent of the trauma that...

Thank you. Morning, both. Deputy Mayor, there cannot be anybody around this table who was not horrified by the Cultural Review; some of us thought that it would be bad, but some of the things that were reported were absolutely disgraceful. Now, as normal, we ask for the Mayor to attend Plenary meetings because he is ultimately responsible politically.

To the Deputy Mayor, would you be up to a pilot of possibly merging an LAS and an LFB station and making it a zero-carbon best-in-practice project?

Susan Hall AM: This is addressed to the Mayor. Good morning. Do you think your Health in All Policies approach was successful when implementing your Street Space schemes across London?

Zack Polanski AM: My question is for you, Mr Mayor, and then I will come to the Fire Commissioner. You spoke with Assembly Member Sheikh before about TfL and inequality. I want to ask you, though, about the LFB. What role does it have in tackling inequality in London? Would it be better for it to have a clear inequalities strategy?
