  • Undertakings made to the British Olympic Committee (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 13 October 2004
    I know that the Metropolitan Police endeavoured to put £800,000 into its budget for next year, which would have been paid directly for Londoners and not necessarily through that mechanism. What I am seeking is a clear assurance to Londoners where that funding is going to come from. I do not want the Mayor to be grandstanding about his 35,000 police officers.

    • Question by: Elizabeth Howlett
    • Meeting date: 13 October 2004
    Thank you very much. I am going to ask this question about hidden cost and also a capacity issue for the whole of London, not just east London. I wonder whether, in fact, you have been in discussion with London NHS as to capacity, and how it could bear an influx of a huge number of people.

Are you discussing this problem with London NHS?
