  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [1]

    • 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.

    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?

    It would be premature, would it not?
  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [7]

    • 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?
  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [11]

    • 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. The District Audit is an independent service. There are of course two sides to this because politicians the world over use it as a foil for their political battles, but anyone in this Chamber, or indeed any member of the public, has a perfect right to contact the District Audit Service and to ask them to look...

    How do you intend to fulfill the promise of a bonfire of bureaucracy?
  • Use of Statistics (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    Thank you. Can I turn to another set of statistics which I know that quite a number of your officers are busy out today collecting across London? I myself saw a census point as I came to work and I know other colleagues have seen them as well. We are not due a national census for another two or three years as I understand it, so what is this census as a result of which so many of your officers are involved in pulling cars over this morning?
  • Use of Statistics (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Damian Hockney
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    Thank you for that. I think a lot of it is also about public perception but also what other people say. I heard on the Today programme once Glen Smythe who is the Chair of the Metropolitan Police Federation saying, `The level of crime reported is far below that which really happens and the whole process is underplayed for political reasons'. I am link member on the MPA for Kensington and Chelsea and the Chair of the Police and Community Consultative Group (PCCG) there is constantly concerned with regard to, say, carnival that the level of reporting of crime is...
