  • Leveson Inquiry

    • Reference: 2012/0068-2
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 20 December 2012
    Does the Metropolitan Police Service actually accept in broad principle the findings of the Leveson Inquiry?
  • Leveson Inquiry (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 20 December 2012
    Obviously because the time has slipped for getting bids in to you by the end of February but the schemes are going to be starting in April, the new financial year, it does not give them very much leeway. Will you be giving them some extra leeway in how they can deliver those schemes?
  • Drug Intervention Programme (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 20 December 2012
    Can I just ask one question before we leave this section on violence against women and girls. We did hear in one of our earlier sessions that there is a shortage of refuge places in London. Is that something that MOPAC can look at, the demand and the need for that as well?
  • Leveson Inquiry

    • Reference: 2012/0057-2
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 29 November 2012
    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.
  • Police and Crime Plan

    • Reference: 2012/0063-2
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 29 November 2012
    Perhaps I can move to the Police and Crime Plan, and thank you, Deputy Mayor, for sending us the headline document. I think at the moment, until there is great meat on the bones, there is very little we can feedback at the moment, so we look forward to doing that in the New Year. Could I just make and observation and ask one question. You talked about accountability earlier, police accountability. There is nothing in this document about accountability, so I think that is a major issue that needs to go in there. Also, I think MOPAC's accountability, particularly...
  • Training

    • Reference: 2012/0066-2
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 29 November 2012
    Can I just pick up some of the training issues then. I am very pleased you said you welcomed outside providers perhaps that deal with violence against women and girls to come in and do some training, because that is one of the issues that was raised with us from those support groups. I understand that particularly with you recruiting more PCs, part of your frontline training is now going to be computer based. How do you ensure the quality of that and the quality of response to vulnerable victims with that computer-based training?
  • 20-20-20

    • Reference: 2012/0049-2
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 25 October 2012
    I am going to start today and start by asking some questions about the MOPAC Challenge mechanism. The Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime has set up what he calls MOPAC Challenge, which is the principal mechanism through which the Mayor and Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime hold the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) and the top team to account. I believe earlier this month some performance targets were set as part of a 20-20-20 vision. Perhaps I can start, Mr Morley, with you. Could you just very briefly tell us what that 20-20-20 vision is?
  • Police Registration Certificates

    • Reference: 2012/0055-2
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 25 October 2012
    I am going to move on now to police registration certificates. I have been contacted by the University of London Union and there have been press reports about the debacle that happened only a few weeks ago where I understand that students who are foreign nationals have to register with the police. Recently the category of students who have to register has been widely widened. I understand that the numbers are now higher. We have had reports that the MPS has struggled to cope with demand and that some of the information given by the police may have been confusing...
  • 20-20-20 (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 25 October 2012
    Can I ask what that will mean for resource allocation across the piece? We often hear particularly from different boroughs and from the police that when targets come down centrally you go after one crime type and then others suffer. Can I ask Craig Mackey what these targets could mean for resource allocation to deal with issues that Fiona [Twycross] and we would raise, perhaps domestic violence? Would it mean that other areas would not get the same priority?
  • Borough Command Units (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 27 September 2012
    Joanne McCartney (Chair): Can I ask on the consultation: is it going to go on to be a full public consultation at some point?
