    • Meeting date: 01 December 2022
    Unmesh Desai AM: Thank you, Chair. Commissioner, my question is to you. Trust and confidence in the MPS in London is a key issue currently.

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 01 December 2022
    Unmesh Desai AM: Thank you, Chair, and my question is to both of you. Earlier this year, it was reported that of the 32 terror plots that have been found since 2017, 18 were Islamist-related, whilst 12 were motivated by a far-right ideology, an example of which we saw was the attack on the migrant centre in Dover last month.

  • Question and Answer Session: Proposed Revision to the Mayor of London's Transport Strategy (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 17 November 2022
    Unmesh Desai AM: Thank you, Chair. You were asked earlier, by Assembly Member McCartney, about public transport in outer London. Mr Mayor, the frequent closures of the District Line at weekends for essential works causes a lot of inconvenience for residents in my constituency, especially Barking and Dagenham. The information I have had from TfL does not address my concerns, and this has been going on for some years.

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 06 October 2022
    Unmesh Desai AM: Thank you, Chair. Good afternoon, panel. My question is about the demands of policing mega events and it is to you, Lyn. The policing operation for the Olympics was huge and a success. However, one of the problems with policing mega events, as a Government report made clear in 2020, is the coordination between multiple agencies. With the current and anticipated increasing footfall in the Stratford area with the ABBA [Voyage] Arena and the proposed MSG Sphere, how are you working with the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS), the British Transport Police (BTP) and other agencies to meet...
