  • What are the biggest challenges with regards to policing and crime in London, and how are you and the Metropolitan Police Service delivering for Londoners? Violence and murder reduction (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 02 December 2021
    Caroline Russell AM: Commissioner, I know you are aware of the great work going on in Iceland reducing violence and murder. I mentioned it to you informally earlier this year. Between 2005 and 2018, Iceland recorded just 24 murders. Over the same time period, London recorded 1,862 murders. I know Iceland is much smaller than London, but even so, Iceland had 67 murders per million people in that time compared to London’s 210 per million people; that is three times as many in London. I am wondering if you have looked at what police are doing in other countries, particularly...
  • What are the biggest challenges with regards to policing and crime in London, and how are you and the Metropolitan Police Service delivering for Londoners? Vision Zero (Supplementary) [18]

    • Question by: Siân Berry
    • Meeting date: 02 December 2021
    Siân Berry AM: Carrying on my colleague’s theme of targeting zero deaths, I want to turn to enforcement on the roads and the proactive policing support that there is for Vision Zero there. Commissioner, I am keen to understand how transparent you are on this road danger work. Looking at the publications from TfL, its last Roads Policing Enforcement Statistics Bulletin was with data for 2018/19 and was published over a year ago now in November 2020. Briefly, when will we see an update to this bulletin and will it have up-to-date data from the MPS?

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    One of the reasons I put this question is because when we actually got the Met to take up the reduction of road death and casualties as a priority I really felt that the argument had been won. However, I still do not see the results in the boroughs. Are there resources going to the boroughs for this or not?
  • Speeding (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    A couple of years ago I went around to about a third of the boroughs to talk to the borough commanders about the issue of road crime and ask them what resources they were putting towards road safety. At the time they said it was not a priority for them, although they would love to do it and saw the value. It is now a priority for the Met, but I still do not see any real understanding of that in the boroughs. What can you do about it personally, Commissioner?

    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    You mentioned the debate at the moment about the use of safety cameras. I wonder if it is time you actually stood up and said safety cameras are there to save lives; it is speed that kills and not safety cameras. Is that something you would be prepared to make a statement on?
