Fiona Twycross AM: I have a question on co-commissioning. I have a point of clarification before I ask my question which is on co-commissioning which, is about the examples of groups with different needs and whether you have it broken down.

Joanne McCartney AM: I just want to come back to the role of strategic oversights of health services in London. Lord Darzi, you said earlier that issues cannot be dealt with by local boroughs and commissioning groups or the health and wellbeing boards. You gave estates as an example. You have also stated that one of the legacies of the strategic oversight for London was the reconfiguration of stroke services. I am just wondering, in the future, given that we have national and local, what is there now in London to deliver that pace of change? If we do not...

Obviously because the time has slipped for getting bids in to you by the end of February but the schemes are going to be starting in April, the new financial year, it does not give them very much leeway. Will you be giving them some extra leeway in how they can deliver those schemes?

I am going to move on to a few questions about community safety funding, if I may, and I wanted to ask the Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime. Obviously we have seen some of the criteria that have come through in the letter that has been sent out from you and London Councils to councils. The first question was how MOPAC selected the criteria under which the decisions on allocating community safety funding were selected and what consultation if any you made in determining the criteria with relevant stakeholders who were applying for funding.

There are the Leveson recommendations and then there are things that the police can do over and above Leveson themselves. If we go to the heart of the issues of investigating the rich and powerful, the checks and balances on judgement calls. From the original investigation of limiting to the few - not going in and looking at the wider evidence but it sits there in a room or whatever - to other issues of when you do the recall are the checks and balances internally and judgement calls about investigating issues. Is there something more that the police can...

Can we look at the MOPAC role now? My question is directly to Stephen. There are two questions and thank you. I think you have provided the Committee with some correspondence from the previous questions around this issue. Can you just explain to us how the MOPAC plans to oversee the Metropolitan Police Service implementation of the Leveson recommendations will work? I understand there was an Audit Committee yesterday. Can you also then demonstrate how yours and the Mayor's relationships with the press will be transparent? That was an item that I think you alluded to in the correspondence that...

With your indulgence, Chair, I wanted to cover two things briefly. The first I think is to Stephen Greenhalgh, which is that he is the lineal successor to [Lord] Toby Harris AM, Len Duvall AM [former Chairs of the MPA and then Kit Malthouse AM [former Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime]. They exercised their roles predominantly as chairs of the MPA with many members. I just wanted to, if you like, punch the bruise of Tony Arbour's question, which is that understanding and defining your role -- and you are not stupid by any stretch of the imagination. However...

Can I ask the Deputy Commissioner for a point of clarification on the Leveson recommendations? To what extent are they applicable to British publications getting hacked material from abroad?
