    As a previous Leader of a London Borough with a "Weak" rating under Comprehensive Performance Assessment from the independent Audit Commission does he accept the organisation and corporate performance of the MPA under his leadership is even worst than Haringey, and if not how can he prove it and will he announce that the MPA will be inviting the Audit Commission to start a CPA Inspection ? .
  • Young People (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Noel Lynch
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    Noel Lynch (AM): In your opening remarks you mentioned the TV images and the predominance of attacks on older people, when in actual fact it is most towards young people. Of course, the problem now is that over 50% of over 75s are afraid to leave their houses because they are afraid of getting attacked. What can you do to allay their fears?
  • Cost of Capital City and Security Functions (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    Be that as it may, you made it quite clear yourself that there is no proper distinguishing between the allocation of these costs. You have merely suggested that there is a matching. I think that we ought to have known precisely what comes in and what goes out. Nevertheless, this really means that we really ought to be discussing once again the question of a national police force. I will tell you why it has become even more important this morning. Do you accept, as the Commissioner accepted in the response to the first debate this morning, that as he...

  • Cost of Capital City and Security Functions (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    During the past month Londoners have expended more than £4 million on the visit of President Bush, a man who I was happy to see visit London. I am sorry that the Mayor was unhappy to see President Bush visit London. We have not received reimbursement for that sum of money. When the matter was discussed earlier again this morning as to whether or not these things should be provided by a national police force, both you and the Commissioner raised the spectre of some all-powerful police Tsar who would be answerable to no-one if we were to have a...
  • Cost of Capital City and Security Functions (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 10 December 2003
    Chairman, will you not accept that the complaint about the Met having to carry out national policing means that ordinary policing in London suffers very significantly because of the extraction which is required from the boroughs. If I refer again to the question of President Bush's visit, and I am willing to lay odds that Blunkett will roll you over on that one as he has rolled you over on MPS funding in general, whilst the visit was taking place, crime in the suburbs increased. Crime in the suburbs increased simply because the Met was responsible for this national function.
