What representations has the Chairman made to the Mayor about the use of LFEPA's large financial reserves?

• 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...

During your periods in post as Chair and Commissioner respectively, will any London fire station be permanently closed or have its opening hours restricted?

I want to return to the question of closures when we get to my question. I want, here, to focus on this question of budgetary matters. Firstly, could I ask the Commissioner to confirm the advice given in the finance paper on Monday that, on the level of reserves, the exposure for medium and high risk are assessed at a minimum level of £10.9 million? So a figure of £10 million or £11 million is the officer advice about the minimum level of reserves?

I am tempted to ask, in keeping with the Lynne Featherstone callout question, which budget paid for the 21 gun salute that greeted your attendance here this morning that we were enjoying while you were going on! The serious point, Chairman, is that - as you yourself said - there is no one party with overall control of the Authority and, therefore, these important matters of financing of the emergency services should be a matter of proper discussion and dialogue between the parties. You have made it clear that you personally do not want to follow the Mayor's guidance, which...

A small point, returning to this question of the utilities infrastructure and whether you are in this rich mix of cooks and broths and magic wands talking to the regulators, Ofcom, Ofgem and all the other `ofs', because in the old days the utilities, the phone, gas and electricity companies would have been able to put the infrastructure in ahead of demand. Now they are working on a private model they can only put the investment in if there is a sure payback, unless the regulators tell them they have to do that. So are the regulators part of this?

I saw that the LDA was putting a grant into some electricity substation, I cannot remember the details, and I thought `why is the LDA paying for electricity infrastructure?'

As long as the money is coming back, because they are going to make money using it.

I am pleased with what you said about the registering of volunteers. I know that New York and some of the continental bids are perhaps a little ahead of us, so it is good to know where we are catching up. I wanted to press you a little harder. At the beginning you talked about getting the balance right between a winning bid and a bid that spreads the benefits around London and so forth. I am optimistic that is not a question of trading one off against the other. You said that part of the winning was about involving...
