    • Meeting date: 02 December 2021
    Shaun Bailey AM: Good morning, Commissioner. Good morning, Mr Mayor. I would like to address my first question to the Mayor. What are you and MOPAC doing to ensure that Londoners have faith and confidence in the police?

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 02 December 2021
    Tony Devenish AM: I have three points, please. Firstly, we are almost at Christmas and I want to wish my local BCU Merry Christmas and thank them for all the work they have done during the year. They have been fantastic. On a far darker note, you will have seen the video online this week on Monday night during Hanukkah on Oxford Street, the antisemitism incident. Please make sure you catch these vile people as soon as possible. My third point and my question is, we had a very, very interesting meeting yesterday on the [draft] Police and Crime Plan...
  • Jack Lemley (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    I might have to ask elsewhere. Let us get it in context. We now know that he had expressed concerns - I think was your phrase - that the project was not on track. This is not a rogue member of the Board, this is the person who is the Chair of the Authority expressing those concerns. What specifically were the concerns that he raised?

    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    Did you raise any of these concerns at meetings of the Board?

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    Certainly when we had the appearance in front of the Assembly in the summer, I think everyone went away thinking, `This is tremendous, everything is on track'. This now seems to bring the confidence that we all had into some question. How can you give us assurances that things really are on track?

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    Lord Rogers went on record last week criticising the process for the development of the stadium. He claims that the Mayor agrees with him. Does that not lend a tremendous amount of credibility to the fact that there are disputes going on already about the whole process?
  • Jack Lemley (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    Why do you think Mr Lemley gave one set of reasons for leaving London and then another set of reasons on the record, as we have just heard?
  • Jack Lemley (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Elizabeth Howlett
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    Thank you very much. Can I pursue the reasons for Mr Lemley leaving? It has been alleged in some media reports - and of course we have no insider knowledge so I say that these are allegations - that he was inclined to blur the edges between Chair and Chief Executive, which must have been very irritating for Mr Higgins. It is also alleged that he was quite happy to pursue some pecuniary interests and was hoping to recruit a rather obscure American company which turned out to be run by a relative. Again, I am saying these are allegations...

    We understand that, Sir Roy, but Mr Neill has asked a specific question. I would be grateful if you could address it.
