Caroline Russell AM: I want to put my question to Daniel Bridge, the Programme Director for the Royal Docks team. City Airport sits in the heart of the Royal Docks Enterprise Zone.

Thank you. Now we've got Commander Shave there Chairman, I wonder if you can't answer this, perhaps he can. Does the Mayor expect next year, when he's going to get 240 for his transport initiative, for there to be a first call on police manpower, the extra officers going into the borough?
