  • Security During Games Time (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 19 November 2008
    How confident are you in the competence of the Home Office to carry through all the security procedures that are going to be required with the many tens of thousands of volunteers that you are going to be using? I am referring particularly to Criminal Record Bureau (CRB) checks. Currently when police officers are being recruited, teachers are being recruited, social workers in Haringey are being recruited, it takes many months to go through all of this process and that is just normal everyday work. So, do you actually think the Home Office are up to it?

  • Living Wage (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Sally Hamwee
    • Meeting date: 10 October 2006
    A year before the occasion that Darren mentioned, there was a letter sent to London Citizens to which you, Seb, were a signatory, which said indeed that the strategies would be informed by the commitment to identify a living wage. I accept that is not a commitment but in line with your concerns about transparency, how are Londoners to know to what extent your decisions are informed by that?
