Does the Metropolitan Police Service actually accept in broad principle the findings of the Leveson Inquiry?

Let us move on to the drug intervention programme. Obviously you are having the budget for this devolved from the Home Office. It is a considerable sum of money. How are you going to manage the programme?

I wanted to pick up first on Project Daedalus and then moving forward on that. Obviously in the detailed evaluation report that we have had it showed the reoffending rate for those leaving the Heron Unit was 53%, whereas the national reoffending rate was 70%, but that was only for the first cohort. I am wondering, are you going to be looking at the later cohorts to assess what their reoffending rate was - which would mean we probably would not get the final details until the end of next year?

Yes, we have just got a few questions about Operation Condor, and I think my colleague, Andrew, has some questions about this as well. Deputy Commissioner, you recently carried out the operation in my corner of town in Havering and Redbridge, I think you arrested one person in Havering and nobody in Redbridge. How do you judge the impact of a large-scale operation like that against the resource costs?

Perhaps I can start with the Commissioner because we are meeting on the day that Lord Justice Leveson is to announce the results of his inquiry and recommendations. No doubt there will be recommendations with regards to the police as well. I just wondered if you could take a couple of minutes just to explain whether you have actually seen the report, know what the recommendations are and how the police are going to respond to it.

I think, John, you wanted to ask on an issue that is topical at the moment. John Biggs (AM): Yes, which is we cannot comment on a case in front of the courts, but obviously there are two Newham police officers who are in front of the courts at present and we will see what happens. I wanted an assurance from you, Commissioner, that regardless of the outcome of that case, this does raise very serious issues about culture and conduct, and that you would be acting after the event in a way that is exemplary, clear and forceful about...

Can you tell us a little bit about how the budget proposals were developed between the Metropolitan Police Service and the Mayor's office?

Commissioner, if I was a serving officer, I would be really worried about the future of my service. Certainly, from a survey that was done in November, there is that low morale in the service and in the Metropolitan Police Service. On 21 November, you told a BBC Radio 5 live interviewer that indeed there was low morale in the service. Can you share with us what you are doing about that? I mean, in the midst of this storm or tsunami of all the political interference and redrafting of the service, what are you doing to support the staff...

I want to ask about, and we have touched on it a little bit, the consultation that is going to be taking place and is taking place on the Local Policing Model, the Estate Strategy and the Police and Crime Plan. We have heard so many different things about this, perhaps, Stephen, if we could just start off with you, if you could just clarify to us exactly what will be consulted on in January. I think you said 7 January. What is going to be in it in terms of will there be options around the estate, will there...

I have spoken with the Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime with regard to collocation of emergency service provision in London. In the intervening period, the Deputy Commissioner obviously put out some ideas about some fairly major, fairly significant changes in the headquarters element of the estate plan. Could you expand a little bit about where you envisage some of those kind of senior management or centralised management functions being physically located and what thoughts you had given to sharing real estate with other emergency and public services in terms of locating those?
