  • Tourism in Outer London (Supplementary) [4]

    • Meeting date: 04 November 2015
    Richard Tracey AM: I must say that all the foreign visitors I talk to, whether I know them well or not, complain about the large numbers in central London now.

  • 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.
