  • Young People (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Graham Tope
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    Graham Tope (AM): I did want to concentrate today on young people as victims of crime. Every London borough has amongst its top three priorities dealing with anti-social behaviour and whilst that is a priority in every borough it does tend to reinforce the stereotype, the image of young people as the perpetrators and as the problem and does not adequately recognise that more often they are the victims. In terms of talking and working with young people, one of the objectives in the MPS youth strategy is to provide an environment for young people who are victims or witnesses...

  • Step Change and Public Expectations (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Graham Tope
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    If Step Change is as successful as we all hope it is, then obviously it will create that sort of public demand and the demand to have it spread. Whilst I might share the aspirations of the Chair that this will persuade whoever is in Government to provide additional resources, if they do not " and I have to say there is no indication that they will at this stage " how can we go ahead to meet those public expectations that we helped to create?

  • Step Change and Public Expectations (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Graham Tope
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    There have been similar initiatives to Step Change in the past which I know the Met acknowledged to have failed. Why do you think they failed in the past? What will be different this time?

  • Double Counting of Salaries (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Graham Tope
    • Meeting date: 13 November 2002
    I will bring us back to the original question, interesting though that exchange has been, which in a sense was about the clarity and the presentation of information. Is the Chair aware that we have been making - by we, I mean the Finance Committee, and particularly the Budget Review Group on which Eric Ollerenshaw sits, and attends regularly - we have been making efforts to try to present the financial information in a much clearer way and a simpler way, whilst maintaining obviously its accuracy. Would he, like me, welcome any suggestions, whether they be from Eric or from...

  • Liberal Democrat questions to Chair of MPA on 2002/03 budget (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Louise Bloom
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2002
    I wanted to ask you about the role of consultants at the MPA. We see that there is a budget reduction on external consultants. We also know that there are many hundreds of consultants at the MPA, many of whom we're not quite sure what they're doing; consulting on each other, reviewing each other's reviews and all the rest of these wonderful things consultants get to do. Perhaps you can tell us how the savings are going to be made and are we going to get value for money on their work in the next year?

  • Liberal Democrat questions to Chair of MPA on 2002/03 budget (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Louise Bloom
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2002
    Yes I meant MPS sorry, a slight slip of the tongue. That sounds great, but then are we going to have more consultants to manage the review of consultants? Exactly how is it going to happen and who is it going to be lead by? Where will we end up with the actual results, figures, performance indicators and all the rest of it, so we actually know that we have got the right level of consultants? Obviously I accept there is a need for what they do, but equally I share a concern you have already expressed about what they...
