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...

This question is about the effect of budget cuts on police work but I think the public always ask, 'All right about the police work but what about unnecessary bureaucracy?' Do you both feel you are bearing down enough on unnecessary bureaucracy? I am thinking of the pursuit of targets and box ticking which was brought in largely by the last Government. For example, I believe the Home Office has suggested that the Policing Pledge should go. Are you going to remove the Policing Pledge in the MPS or not? Are you doing enough on bureaucracy or is Government perhaps...

This may be more a question for Kit Malthouse, as an accountant. Are you satisfied that the MPS property estate management is as fast on its feet as it ought to be? Because it does seem to me that in the last few years we were at one point in a considerable property boom and I got the impression that a lot of opportunities were missed at that stage. What is your view?

Will the new Regional Control Centre at Merton be ready in time for the Olympics, and if not what contingency plans need to be, and are, in place?

If I heard right, you, Chair, Mr Coleman, you said that that callout would have cost over £200?

This is a question for the Chairman. I hope, Mr Chairman, you will not be taking any lessons on budgeting from the former Leader of Harrow Council, Mr Shah when, as I understand it, the budgets in Harrow got into some serious disarray in the period of 2005/06 and so, surely you need some wiser counsel.

I wonder if the Chairman - presumably it is for the Chairman this one - could bring us up to speed a bit more on the Heritage Protection Bill and the ramifications of it for the Fire Brigade and fire stations because, as I understand it, when some places are listed it is possible to get government grants to bring them up to the standard required or, indeed, to renovate them, but in other cases it is not. So what is the situation with fire stations which must produce a great problem for LFEPA.
