  • Transport (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    Can I press you a bit harder on the document Keep on Running and your advice in it to businesses to reduce non essential journeys and avoid travel where possible. Is there, lurking behind this warning, a real worry in your minds that, despite all the Tube upgrades and all the other measures that have been put in place and the forward planning, the transport infrastructure really is creaking and possibly will not be able to cope?
  • Legacy for London (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    We have been talking about various obvious areas of legacy but there is one piece of legacy that is to the very front of the Mayor's mind and that is the upgrading of the use of the river and river transport. I must declare an interest of helping him particularly in this.

    • Question by: Richard Tracey

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 03 December 2008
    Richard Tracey (AM): Can I say that the indications to me from my constituents is that they are absolutely overjoyed by the Safer Transport Teams and the effectiveness that they are having, and well done to the Metropolitan Police Service for providing them. My question is, to what extent are the Safer Transport Teams able to work very closely with the British Transport Police and also to respond to the live CCTV (closed-circuit television) coverage of some of the buses, particularly? The other thing is can you explain to me how many of the teams are equipped with the small...
  • Oral Update (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 03 December 2008
    This is a question for the Acting Commissioner. Acting Commissioner, various of my constituents have reminded me that one of the platforms on which we were elected to the Assembly in May was common sense policing in London. Can I put it to you, would you consider the definition of 'common sense policing' to include the infringement of deeply entrenched centuries old constitutional privileges of a Member of the House of Commons?
