Dr Onkar Sahota AM: This is a question about LSP5 seeing one appliance go away in Hayes and now the risk of another appliance going away in Ealing. Can you tell me what the impact has been across my constituency, West London, of losing the appliance from Hayes and what the impact will be of losing one in Ealing?

Navin Shah AM: I have a couple of questions to the Commissioner. Given the safety risks from the scale and nature of the changes and cuts that will be faced by the LFB over the next years, how can you meaningfully get the views of London’s firefighters and their representatives?

Andrew Dismore AM: Just to build on Val’s point, it is also important that we really promote first aid training in schools. I remember doing it when I was in the Sea Scouts and then, 20 years later, actually having to do it for real. It did take the ambulance some time to get there. Unfortunately, the chap died, but I did bring him back twice. The point I wanted to make is for Ron, really, and it is what Gareth said about the police doing co-responding, which they are. I was discussing this with a senior police officer the...

Thank you. My question now then is to the Mayor, if I may. When the cuts to policing were first announced three-odd years ago, there were reports and in this Chamber many people warned that anything above a 12% cut to policing would affect the frontline. You said then that the MPS could make 20% at that point without affecting the frontline. I think we have seen the frontline being affected by those 20% cuts. Mr Mayor, can I just put it to you that we have heard about the risks to the future. Is it fair to say, do...

I want to raise with you the issue of tenants who were threatened with eviction from MOPAC-owned homes, some of whom were in fact evicted. I was pleased to see that the vast majority of those now will not be. Your Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime [Stephen Greenhalgh], who I see has just joined us, having reversed his own decision to evict people. I raised this with you back in March, the whole issue of tenants being evicted from Raynesfield in Wimbledon. Why did you not step in then when you had the chance, rather than sitting back while...

A question for the Mayor, really. I want to pick up from where Sir Bernard left off on the issue of abstractions. Boris Johnson (Mayor of London): Yes. Andrew Dismore AM: In February 2013, Sir Bernard told the Police and Crime Committee that he had set a target of no more than 5% of officers’ working time on abstractions, but in July of this year, total abstractions across London in terms of total of hours worked was 17%, more than three times the target. What that translates to is quite serious. In Barnet, for example, in the six months to...
