    • Reference: 2011/0207-1
    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2011
    How many more warranted police (i.e. Police Officers and Special Constables) are there in Merton and Wandsworth since May 2008?

  • Priorities for Budget Cuts (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 June 2011
    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...

  • Next steps on public access channels (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 June 2011
    This may be more a question for Kit Malthouse, as an accountant. Are you satisfied that the MPS property estate management is as fast on its feet as it ought to be? Because it does seem to me that in the last few years we were at one point in a considerable property boom and I got the impression that a lot of opportunities were missed at that stage. What is your view?

  • Protecting Policing (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 June 2011
    Could you tell me how the rapid response experiment has been going, in terms of using resources more efficiently?

  • Transport (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    Can I press you a bit harder on the document Keep on Running and your advice in it to businesses to reduce non essential journeys and avoid travel where possible. Is there, lurking behind this warning, a real worry in your minds that, despite all the Tube upgrades and all the other measures that have been put in place and the forward planning, the transport infrastructure really is creaking and possibly will not be able to cope?

  • Legacy for London (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    We have been talking about various obvious areas of legacy but there is one piece of legacy that is to the very front of the Mayor's mind and that is the upgrading of the use of the river and river transport. I must declare an interest of helping him particularly in this. Can I ask you why it is that, in the transport planning, the provision of free travel to Olympic ticket holders on the Underground, the overground and the buses, there does not appear to be any such free travel to encourage people to use the river? As I...

  • Risks (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    In talking about risks we have to ask you this one. From time to time there has been mention, particularly with the Olympics, of cyber terrorism, the risk of that and the potential chaos that it could cause. The whole business of WikiLeaks in the last few days has raised the spectre of hackers. How far do you believe you are sufficiently prepared to deal with this?
