    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 20 December 2012
    Tony Arbour (AM): Do you have any views on that, Stephen?

  • Borough Command Units (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 25 October 2012
    We accept the view, which has been expressed by the Mayor, which we directly elected members, we take the view that the most important thing for our boroughs is that there is a designated chief officer of whatever rank who is going to be responsible for the borough. That is key to us. If the Mayor says that he is going to do that, we certainly accept that. There is one additional thing that I want to raise with you in relation to this, is it not a fact that in many boroughs, certainly at night, in effect they operate...

  • Borough Command Units (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 27 September 2012
    There is a feeling that we are being marginalised on this. This is Members of the Assembly, not just members of this Committee. For 12 years, if there has been any querying about policing from the boroughs, we have been in the frontline and they have come to us. I have to say that in the years I was doing it I used to say to my borough commanders, 'The one thing that I did not want was to be surprised'. What happened was that this was sent, as you say, to boroughs. The first thing the boroughs do is...

  • Victims of Crime (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 08 March 2012
    Tony Arbour (AM): I have been looking at this card, and I have to say I am not sure I agree with you, Kit, that people do not expect criminals to be caught. I seem to recall Kit Malthouse (Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime): They do. Tony Arbour (AM): the saintly Sir Robert Peel [Home Secretary who established the Metropolitan Police Force in the 1820s], when he put down the things of people being caught and brought to justice; no mention of that on the card. The key thing about this card which I note is that it says...

  • Resources (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 08 March 2012
    Tony Arbour (AM): On the specific point which John raised with you relating to the legal cost, are you telling us that it is possible that Lord Blair, Lord Stevens and other former luminaries at the top of the Metropolitan Police Service, we have paid to give them legal advice before they have gone to Leveson?

  • Role of Faith Groups in Tackling Hard to Reach Groups (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 19 July 2006
    Bishop, I wonder if you think that the function of the church ought to be more proactive? Things you have just been talking about; advice groups and playgroups and all of that kind of thing, is that that people all come to you, ought you not to be going to the people?

  • Role of Faith Groups in Tackling Hard to Reach Groups (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 19 July 2006
    Is being more effective you going out and knocking on people's doors, saying: `You are poor. You need help from us. You need our charity'?

  • Role of Faith Groups in Tackling Hard to Reach Groups (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 19 July 2006
    Isn't that precisely the point that I have been making: that you are sitting there waiting for the poor to come to you, rather than' Brian Coleman (Chairman): I do not quite think that that is what the Bishop said at all, Mr Arbour, to intervene on his behalf. The Bishop can explain himself.
