  • Proposal to Designate a Mayoral Development Area (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 17 December 2014
    Murad Qureshi AM: Can I raise two or three issues. The first one, Eddie, I am grateful that you mentioned the canals at the outset. It is just unfortunate they do not show up on the maps. I have no doubts that residential developers will be eying those canal sides very eagerly, because I suspect they can enhance the values of the developments by up to 40%. That is the residential side. However, I am more concerned that they are used during the works construction on the site. I think this is going to be a huge development site, over...
  • Proposal to Designate a Mayoral Development Area (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 17 December 2014
    Jenette Arnold OBE (Deputy Chair): I have a couple of questions, one for Sir Eddie, and one for Victoria Hills. Sir Eddie, in your introduction you mentioned that the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) master plan was similar to the blueprint adopted by the LLDC. I know, as one of the three Assembly Members for the area covered by the LLDC, and was heavily involved in the consultation and now I keep a very strong watching brief on what is going on, that many aspects of the LLDC’s vision has changed. For instance, the LLDC plan started...

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2013
    It is now the first anniversary of a directly elected police commissioner for London. What difference have Londoners noticed, and how have and will these new powers be exercised over policing in London?
  • Race and Faith Inquiry

    • Reference: 2012/0017-2
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Joanne McCartney (Chair): Can we then move to our substantive item this morning, which is the question and answer session with the Mayor and Commissioner for the Metropolitan Police Service, and can I welcome you both here this morning. Obviously since we last met one of the major issues that has arisen has been allegations of racism within the Metropolitan Police Service, and perhaps I can start with you, Mr Mayor. Today you issued a press release saying that you were launching a review of measures introduced to eradicate racism within the Metropolitan Police Service. Four years ago you launched...
  • Safer Neighbourhood Teams

    • Reference: 2012/0019-2
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Navin Shah (AM): Mr Mayor, do you agree that, in all boroughs, the Safer Neighbourhood Teams are seriously depleted, and therefore the question I have for you is, what plans do you have to restore those Safer Neighbourhood Teams to their full capacity?
  • Violence Against Women and Girls

    • Reference: 2012/0022-2
    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Jennette Arnold (AM): Chair, we did, with your support, want to just raise the issue about violence against women and girls, especially the domestic violence promise which we welcome from the Mayor. The Mayor said in his 2012 manifesto, 'I will work with the Police, Boroughs, National Health Service, Home Office and the Crown Prosecution Service to commission and fund a pan-London domestic violence service and maintain the number of Independent Domestic Violence Advocates (IDVA).' Those are Independent Domestic Violence Advocates. Now, I have two pages of questions so clearly I will not be able to address those, Chair. If...
  • Race and Faith Inquiry (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Jennette Arnold (AM): Can I just ask the Commissioner to clarify what he just said: 7,000 leaders, did you say you had identified?
  • Race and Faith Inquiry (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Joanne McCartney (Chair): Can I just pick up a couple of things from the discussion we have had. We have talked about these various reviews that are going on into different aspects of racism. Who is actually co-ordinating this, Commissioner, at a strategic level for the Metropolitan Police Service?
  • Officer Numbers (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Tom Copley (AM): Thank you, Chair. Mr Mayor, I just wanted to clarify something, following on from Jenny's points. Are you or are you not saying there will be 1,000 more police officers in 2016 than there are now?
  • Safer Neighbourhood Teams (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Len Duvall (AM): A number of boroughs have lost a number of staff, both civilian and police officers; you are talking about allocating the numbers that we have now from the recent Government grant, that is probably less than what they have lost through different ways. The figures I have seen, the figures provided by the Metropolitan Police Service, sorry, but you are talking about reallocating the smaller number of resources in terms of that, is this a new rough formula, the new policing model? What are we talking about? Are these the numbers that each borough is going to...
