    • Reference: 2013/3597
    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 23 October 2013
    The report I referred to in my question submitted for September's MQT is 'The Numbers in Black and White: Ethnic disparities in the Policing and Prosecution of Drug Offences in England and Wales' (published by Release, August 2013). A white person in Hackney caught in possession of cocaine as a result of being stopped and searched is charged only 20% of the time, while a black person is charged 67% of the time. The report reveals this is the case; why do you believe this is so?

  • Question: MPS Recruitment

    • Reference: 2013/3605
    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 23 October 2013
    The £800-£1000 cost of the Certificate in Knowledge of Policing (CKP) which the MPS now requires recruits to complete before they can start as a new police constable will reduce the number of applicants from lower-income households. Making the MPS's workforce more reflective of London as a whole is a major priority, which will be adversely affected by this charge. What are you doing to provide financial support to those people from lower-income households who want to complete the CKP?
