  • Co-location of services

    • Reference: 2012/0062-2
    • Question by: James Cleverly
    • Meeting date: 29 November 2012
    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?
  • Borough Command Units (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: James Cleverly
    • Meeting date: 27 September 2012
    Thank you, Chair. Again, I am not quite sure who is probably best placed to answer this one, so I will throw it roughly halfway between and see who catches it. If we move away from having a chief superintendent as the nominated go-to person at borough level, I do not actually have any instinctive problems with that because of the huge variation of size of policing function borough by borough.

What I would ask is what plans do you have in place to learn lessons from those trials and roll out body-worn cameras as widely as possible right across basically frontline policing? Stephen, I think.
  • Victims of Crime (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: James Cleverly
    • Meeting date: 08 March 2012
    James Cleverly (AM): Following up from Victoria's questions about particularly young victims of crime and their confidence in policing, and I do not want to go crashing into one of the issues we have later on, but we are going to be touching a little bit on disproportionality. From memory, from the feedback we get from the sectors of the community who are least confident interacting with the police, the young tend to be less confident than the older generation. Black and other ethnic minorities tend to be less confident than the white population. Specifically with young, potentially black victims...
