  • LIFE Scheme (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2011
    Can I start by praising the fire service for the work it did in August. I think it was exceptional. Certainly, the Tottenham and Enfield residents are very grateful for the work that you did. I want to ask the question I asked the Commissioner. On Saturday 6 August, we had two police cars nearby Tottenham police station that were set alight. I think there was concern locally that because those fires were not put out those images were then broadcast and it may have attracted other elements into the area. Can I ask whether you were called? Were you...

  • LIFE Scheme (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2011
    Can I echo James Cleverly's remarks from our side in terms of the support and praise to the whole service during the course of the recent events. Chair, if I can deal with that aspect first - the first part of James' [Cleverly] question - then move on to mine specifically in a moment. The Chairman referred to the Enfield Sony depot fire, but can I ask the Commissioner, given the references in the previous questioning - that I know you heard - to the fires in Tottenham and in Croydon on Monday night and the iconic image of fires...

  • Budgetary Targets and Corporate Strategy (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Kit Malthouse
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2011
    Mr Chairman, Commissioner, I wanted to also thank and congratulate you for your sterling work over the last few weeks alongside the officers of the MPS. It was a fantastic joint operation dealing with very difficult circumstances. I know and was pleased that you mentioned that the coordination between the two services was exceptional and saved a lot of lives as a result. I also wanted to offer my congratulations for, frankly, another magnificent year of performance both in terms of output and budget. You seem to be achieving year-on-year, that magic equation of doing better for less, consistently. I...

  • Budgetary Targets and Corporate Strategy (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2011
    Commissioner, can I say on behalf of my constituents how grateful we were to firefighters who attended at Clapham Junction in Battersea. Indeed, yesterday, Jane Ellison, the Member of Parliament for Battersea, was visiting the Battersea firefighters at the station. I would have been there too had I not been here on Transport Committee duties. My question is first of all to the Chairman. Do you share my impatience and frustration at Navin Shah's question to you about the budget and the potential budget of LFEPA, when it is so skilfully managed by Councillor Maurice Heaster from Wandsworth and the...

  • Budgetary Targets and Corporate Strategy (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2011
    ): Can I just begin by thanking, through you Chair, the entire staff of LFEPA for their outstanding professionalism during the riots? I wanted to talk to you about the future of the emergency control mobilising centre, the 999 call centre. I have it on good account that the staff of that centre performed magnificently during the riots. In fact, an entire shift stayed on as volunteers to double up the normal capacity. I hope you would not disagree with me if I said it is fair to say that is the most efficient and effective 999 fire control centre...

  • Fire Safety in Care Homes (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Barnbrook
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2011
    After all we hear that emergency services are constantly under attack, from nurses, doctors, fire workers, police, all of this going on, it is a technical question. Outside of the appliances that the London Fire Brigade has, which are static in the sense they rely upon groundwater resource for the purpose of their functioning, how many units are there in London that are mobile water dispensers or water fighters in the sense they carry their own water supply with them?
