This question is about the effect of budget cuts on police work but I think the public always ask, 'All right about the police work but what about unnecessary bureaucracy?' Do you both feel you are bearing down enough on unnecessary bureaucracy? I am thinking of the pursuit of targets and box ticking which was brought in largely by the last Government. For example, I believe the Home Office has suggested that the Policing Pledge should go. Are you going to remove the Policing Pledge in the MPS or not? Are you doing enough on bureaucracy or is Government perhaps...
