    • Reference: 2012/0040-2
    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 19 July 2012
    Chair, it is just a quick question, and it goes back I think to where Steve [O'Connell] started. Commissioner, what I just wanted to raise with you was, as well as the Olympics, and I welcome the assurances that you have given from where you are at the moment, it is summer time, even though it is so wet out there, and during this time there would normally be contingency plans for events that happen, certainly in some boroughs that I am familiar with, over that summer period. You would normally, I know in the boroughs I represent, they would...
  • Olympics Security

    • Reference: 2012/0041-2
    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 19 July 2012
    A question to the Commissioner. Just earlier on, and I apologise for arriving late, but I heard you, in terms of you answering the questions on the milestones. I want to take you back to the Olympic security issue. Of course in July when they indicated they could not fulfil the contract, that is quite a clear milestone. You mentioned before in the autumn of 2011 the jump from 3,000 odd to 10,000.
  • Privitisation

    • Reference: 2012/0043-2
    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 19 July 2012
    Can we just look at learning lessons and really I suppose the aspect of privatisation, which is another side of policing activities in terms of what has happened with some of your neighbouring services. I really have two questions to you both, but if I can begin with the Commissioner. On a webcast on 21 June, I think you have a fairly fixed view about privatisation, about the limits of it, where to put it within the police activities and where not. Do you describe core activities ... you do not really see privatisation doing patrolling, issues of police investigations...

  • Sustainable Development (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 11 October 2006
    Is there any annual stocktake snapshot of progress towards the sustainability generally, reconciling the economic, social and environmental? Does the Board or the Agency take stock once a year and look at those trade-offs or look at the win win.
  • Sustainable Management System (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2005
    This is a question to Mary (Reilly). It is about the training and employment framework that you have mentioned already. I recently visited Canary Wharf, where a training centre was set up on site by the Canary Wharf Group with the Universities & Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) and with Lewisham College, which seems to me to be an excellent example of good practice about how workers who have low skills can go on site and, during working hours, get that extra help they need. I know that UCAS is pressing for a similar site to be set up in the...
