  • Question and Answer Session: Policing (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 01 December 2022
    Tony Devenish AM: Thank you. My questions are for Sir Mark, please. Eighty days into the job and clearly you are talking about good signals that things are getting better in policing in London, and I want to pick two topics, please. The first is obviously anti-Semitism, and AM Pidgeon has already mentioned the terrible incident last year in Hanukkah on Oxford Street. Is there any progress, please, on that investigation? You realise it is not specifically the investigation itself; it is the signal that that sends in terms of fighting anti-Semitism.

  • Question and Answer Session: Policing (Supplementary) [22]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 01 December 2022

You can probably perhaps remind me of the date to make sure I get the right date. What is the issue in terms of a risk register for the governance for that? Are you specifically concerned at all about the competence of any of the boroughs to take over those powers, particularly one borough with the initials T-H?

  • Adult Education Budget (Supplementary) [20]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2022
    Tony Devenish AM: Good morning or, rather, good afternoon, Deputy Mayor. You have a third of a billion pounds to spend a year. That is an awful lot of money. From what you said this morning I am not really sure if there is the step change in London that I would have thought for something you have full control on. The Mayor’s inability to turn up today illustrates. Is he actually interested in this hugely important area of public policy?
