    Sem Moema AM: Thank you, Chair, and good morning to all of you. I have a lot of questions for Sir John Armitt, but I want to use the full breadth of the expert panel today.

First of all I would like to address a question to Sir John, referring to another John, John Dickie, from John Kavanagh’s organisation [BusinessLDN], has stated that cutting back on HS2 is a false economy and it will lead to increased costs in the future.

  • Question and Answer Session: Policing (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 01 December 2022
    Caroline Russell AM: Thank you very much, Chair. My question is for the Commissioner. In October 2022, when you first appeared in front of the Police and Crime Committee, we spoke about diversion as opposed to criminalisation for the possession of cannabis. One of the things you said you did in your time in Surrey back in 2011 was “to be one of the driving forces nationally in building a different approach with out-of-court disposals.” You described how that eventually became community resolutions. It is clear that you see the benefits of diversion for people who are stopped with cannabis...

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 01 December 2022
    Unmesh Desai AM: Thank you, Chair. Commissioner, my question is to you. Trust and confidence in the MPS in London is a key issue currently. How are you working to restore the trust of all Londoners? I appreciate that you have partially answered this question in response to the question from the Chair, but can you be more specific and give some examples, especially with regard to regaining the trust of Black Londoners, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Londoners, women Londoners, etcetera ?

  • Question and Answer Session: Policing (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 01 December 2022
    Susan Hall AM: Thank you. May I say first of all, Sir Mark, thank you for your robust answers to Assembly Member Russell. There is no doubt that politicians do mean well, but it is absolutely vital that we look at things in the round. I really applaud your robust answers. To be fair, Sir Steve House had started to row back, and I am pleased to see that you are saying what you are because figures on both sides of an argument need to be looked at. Thank you for that; I was thrilled to hear that. Mr Mayor...

  • Question and Answer Session: Policing (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 01 December 2022
    Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Lovely, thank you. Baroness Casey’s interim report found much wrong in the MPS, and in particular, systems and behaviours that are racist and sexist. I want to start with you, Sir Mark, because I put this to the Mayor the other week. The report gave an example of one borough team where 37% of female employees had experienced unwanted sexual advances or touching in the last six months. What are you going to do to tackle this disgusting behaviour?
