Returning if I may to the effects, Commissioner, of the G4S ineptitude on the boroughs. I am pleased to hear your professional judgment that you expect perhaps no further draw or demand upon those resources, but clearly that remains to be seen as it plays out. However, I respect your opinion on that. Something that worries many residents is around the pressure on the Safer Neighbourhood Teams (SNT). The Mayor has given a commitment that the Safer Neighbourhood Teams will be staffed during this period. But remember they are starting from quite a low base at the moment, already the...

When the last Government decided to set up LOCOG as a private company rather than a public agency, it was sold as a way of speeding up their procurement. After extensive questioning from all sides of this Assembly, it now appears that the motive may have been to escape the sort of standards of transparency that one would have expected from public bodies. Can you tell me, have you ever expressed dissatisfaction with the timing or quality of the information coming from LOCOG?

Richard Tracey (AM): I am grateful, Chair. Commissioner, this matter of PCSOs is really exercising the public of London. Obviously you have a lot more to do, but unfortunately there is a lot of misleading information out there and it is very good that you have, this morning, spelt out some of the reality. First of all you talked about the recruitment of new warranted officers from PCSOs which depleted the warranted officers but the main contact that the public seemed to have with the police, from the feedback I get, is when your fairly junior officers go out to...

What role do you see for the National Sports Centre at Crystal Palace in the Olympic bid? .

• Question by: Bob Neill
• Meeting date: 15 October 2003

Perhaps I can come in as the person whose constituency actually includes Crystal Palace. Surely, it would be a pretty untenable Olympic bid that had no role for the one venue in London which is capable of dealing with grand prix athletic sports events. Can I ask again, what specific role do you envisage Crystal Palace playing a) in the run-up to the Games, b) during the Games, and c) as part of the legacy?

Do you agree that the prospect of the closure of the facility next spring provides a real risk in terms of damaging our bid or our reputation? Do you look to the various members of the GLA family to be supportive in trying to resolve this rather knotty problem? I will ask a second question, if it does not get in the way of others. You mentioned the remoteness of Crystal Palace. Does this then mean that the area I represent of Croydon and Sutton is regarded as being a place that is remote from the Olympic process? Does that...

I made the mistake of asking two questions at one time. My first question, in terms of looking to the GLA family to be supportive, and maybe make some intervention, what degree of risk do you see for our Olympic bid if Crystal Palace closes in March next year?

Just one quick point. There is an arena potentially being built in Croydon that provides one place for sports facilities, and we have many lovely hills which are good for cyclists to tackle.

I am afraid you did not, that is why I am pressing you.
