The question, if I can start to the Deputy Commissioner, it is regarding the English Defence League (EDL) march planned for 27 October 2012, this Saturday coming, and its impact on the borough. It is planning to march in Waltham Forest, a borough I represent, its impact on Islington, the neighbouring borough, I also represent, but the other boroughs affected are Tower Hamlets and Newham. I wonder if the Deputy can just give us an update, knowing that the Metropolitan Police Service has now joined others, I have to say, from my point of view, a bit late in the...

Deputy, we know that a letter has gone from the Commissioner [Bernard Hogan-Howe] to local authorities with a document attached that sets out proposals about how savings might be made, including looking at management costs, supervision ratios and a number of areas. It also sets out a new model in policing terms and makes reference to a basic command unit which will vary in size and shape. Are you able to just help us with your definition about what a basic command unit is?

Yes, Chair, thank you for that. I just wanted to clarify, and it is the point that Jenny has made. To so many people, when we talk about deaths in police custody, we include deaths associated with police contact. The public does not get into the sophistication of whether somebody died in the cell, it is if the police are there and they have arrested somebody or they have something to do with it and a death occurs, then that really is what is so alarming to us generally, to us all. If I could go specifically to members of...

Thank you; that is one down. Now, can I just say to you that the recent YouGov survey commissioned by End Violence Against Women Campaign showed that almost a third of respondents, women aged 18-24, have experienced unwanted sexual attention on London's public transport. So, is it not time for TfL to commit to a zero tolerance sexual harassment awareness campaign, similar to the one run in New York; I do not know if the Mayor saw the campaign ads while he was visiting there recently, but those ads are quite clear. They say, 'Sexual harassment is not acceptable, will...

Yes, thank you, Chair. My questions of concern are about sexual harassment on London transport and they are to the Commissioner. Peter, I am just looking for four yeses here, so I hope we can agree. Can I just start by saying, I know that you will agree with me, that sexual harassment on London's transport system has been a matter of concern. I say that because I have been working with your officers on this matter since 2009. Can you confirm that TfL remains committed to a zero tolerance approach and that TfL has a duty to ensure that...

Assembly Member Jones, no. Sorry, Mr Mayor. You gave a detailed answer to the first question, which was great. You have had now enough time on this, so I want to move on. I just want to find the Standing Order that gives us the gap for the Commissioner who seemed to want to make a statement to come in. There is no Standing Order except that apparently I can make a ruling, so can I just ask the Commissioner if he just wanted to make a statement? He was giving an indication that he wanted to make a statement...
