Dee Doocey (Chair): We now come to the session on policing. Can I formally welcome Kit Malthouse, in his capacity as Chair of the Metropolitan Police Authority, and Sir Paul Stephenson, Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis. I know that both Kit and Sir Paul wish to make an opening statement. Just to explain how things are going to work, the questions we have got in today are quite unusual in that they are all quite similar, so it has been agreed that each question will be put in turn and the questioner will have the opportunity to ask two...

I would like to pick up a couple of the issues from earlier. I am, Sir Paul, really reassured in your commitment to Safer Neighbourhood Teams and, particularly, that you are nervous about moving away from the ward-based model; I certainly am as well. It is very reassuring compared to what I have heard the Assistant Commissioner in Territorial Policing say. I found that he clearly has ideas to change TP completely. You said to Richard [Tracey] that that might be Surrey, this is London. It seems to me Ian McPherson's ideas come from Norfolk, and that is not London...

That is very welcome. I think Sir John quite rightly said how important it is that victims continue to receive support. What are we doing to ensure that victims are kept informed of the progress of their case? Hopefully there is a lot of support usually at the beginning and shortly after the incident. It takes quite a long time to go through to judicial disposal. What attention is paid to keeping these victims informed?

The closure of the extremely busy Central Line for the best part of three months, though highly inconvenient, showed that London does not have to come to a halt if a key line is closed down. Do you now believe that TfL could get very much better value for money out of the PPP contracts if work to upgrade the Tube system (track, signalling, stations) were concentrated into periods where lines or sections of line were closed entirely, rather than being restricted to 12.30am 5.30am with all the inefficiencies of stop-start-stop that this entails? .

Mr O'Toole your strengths are obviously in contract management looking at your previous business experience. How can what you have learned from your previous experience be best applied to London's Tube network? .

Do you agree that there should be 5 key, and customer `friendly', indicators that Londoners can use to judge the success that Transport for London may, or may not make in operating the Tube? .

I hear what you are saying and I understand. You have three pieces of work: you must manage the contracts, manage the Tube running, and this third piece of work I am nagging you about. You do not want to raise expectations and you want to see that you do those first two pieces of work. I want to test you in two areas. The closure of the Central Line was one. I am looking at flexibility within the contract. You do agree there may be flexibility for negotiation within the contract, either along those lines or indeed along what...
