    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Can you confirm then that the report that was issued is substantially, other than maybe a few housekeeping issues that might have emerged, the one that was presented to the Board on the Friday morning? I believe that is the case.

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Has he given you a timescale for what he is going to do or how he is going to do anything?
  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    I do not have any problem with the entirety. Just to clarify ' I think this has been clarified fairly well ' but the question of referrals to the police is because, when serious allegations are made ' and of course people making serious allegations have a serious responsibility to reflect on the seriousness of the allegations they are making ' the LDA is not a detective agency itself. You can confirm that it is not a detective agency?

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    You have mentioned, Andrew, that this is your review. I want to be absolutely clear what the status of the District Auditor is in it now. Have you asked the District Auditor to do any further work or investigations?

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    I might as well declare that I was the Chair of the Audit Committee of the LDA for a couple of years. I am very happy for that to be a matter of record as well; we did some very good work there.

  • Catastrophic Incident Preparations (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004

I am just trying to get a sense of whether the equipment we have bought since 9/11 is really state-of-the-art.

    Last night in my constituency there was a major meeting because of concerns of movement of ordinary engines. What can you say to Londoners today in terms of your readiness from your service and working in collaboration with colleagues. Are you ready?
