Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [25]
- Question by: Tony Arbour
- Meeting date: 16 January 2008
So you are telling the Assembly that, simply based on the information that you held in your records, on the assumption that all of your records were complete, you were able to come to a conclusion with regard to what Brenda Stern said, that as far as you were concerned there is no case to answer? Would not the obvious thing for you to have done have been to go to the source of the allegations? Is that not an elementary thing to do? Why did you limit your investigation just to the material which you say that you hold?

Use of Statistics (Supplementary) [10]
- Question by: Damian Hockney
- Meeting date: 08 November 2006
The problem is when the Chair of the Federation is saying what he says, which is so seriously strong when he says that it is being reported it is far below what really happens, underplayed for political reasons, you can play with statistics in that sense and the public does not feel that we have gotten on top of it. I think that independent statistics surely are the answer.
Transport Safer Neighbourhood Teams (2) (Supplementary) [7]
- Question by: Graham Tope
- Meeting date: 08 November 2006

Costs of Policing Heathrow (Supplementary) [3]
- Question by: John Biggs
- Meeting date: 08 November 2006
Thank you for that answer. I freely admit this is a semi-planted question. The question is not planted but I received a briefing from the police several months ago precisely as part of the strategy which I think the Authority supports of seeking to reclaim funding for policing at London City Airport, and I quite strongly support that, it is a very profitable enterprise. As I understand it the figures are that currently policing at Heathrow costs roughly £48 million a year, of which we recover £26 million, and we want to increase that to £35 million. From the public...

London City Airport; roughly we spend £7 million on policing - I think this is public information - and we are hoping to recover £5 million of that £7 million from them. That is not unreasonable.
