OK, the other area I wanted to ask you about was the horse, the mounted units, an area I know that is close to your heart. There has been some research recently about the effectiveness of mounted police officers, both in visibility and in terms of enforcement. In effectiveness, I do not know if you have seen the hilarious video of a motorcyclist just on London Wall, I think doing a wheelie, being stopped by a mounted police officer very effectively and dealt with. What are the plans for the mounted units going forward?

Then I just wanted to clarify the situation on Westminster and police stations, since Murad [Qureshi] raised it.

Kit Malthouse AM: The City of Westminster will have three stations in the plan, which is Belgravia, West End Central and Paddington Green, will remain.

Many areas in Croydon and Sutton are cursed with the riding of small mini-mopeds and motorcycles on pathways, parks, open spaces and roads by riders often unhelmeted. Frequently it seems that individual community ward officers do their very best to tackle the problems arising from this behaviour. What though is best practice across the Metropolitan Police Service on dealing with this problem ? What powers are employed to tackle such behaviour and what additional powers could the police service seek to tackle this issue?
