  • Leveson Inquiry (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Fiona Twycross
    • Meeting date: 20 December 2012
    I am going to move on to a few questions about community safety funding, if I may, and I wanted to ask the Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime. Obviously we have seen some of the criteria that have come through in the letter that has been sent out from you and London Councils to councils. The first question was how MOPAC selected the criteria under which the decisions on allocating community safety funding were selected and what consultation if any you made in determining the criteria with relevant stakeholders who were applying for funding.
  • Borough Command Units (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: James Cleverly
    • Meeting date: 27 September 2012
    Thank you, Chair. Again, I am not quite sure who is probably best placed to answer this one, so I will throw it roughly halfway between and see who catches it. If we move away from having a chief superintendent as the nominated go-to person at borough level, I do not actually have any instinctive problems with that because of the huge variation of size of policing function borough by borough.

There have been trials of body-worn cameras, which - on the figures I have had shared with me - indicate that they have reduced the amount of administrative time that those officers subsequently have had to get involved in, they reduce the number of complaints. What I would ask is what plans do you have in place to learn lessons from those trials and roll out body-worn cameras as widely as possible right across basically frontline policing? Stephen, I think.
  • Victims of Crime (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: James Cleverly
    • Meeting date: 08 March 2012
    James Cleverly (AM): Following up from Victoria's questions about particularly young victims of crime and their confidence in policing, and I do not want to go crashing into one of the issues we have later on, but we are going to be touching a little bit on disproportionality. From memory, from the feedback we get from the sectors of the community who are least confident interacting with the police, the young tend to be less confident than the older generation. Black and other ethnic minorities tend to be less confident than the white population. Specifically with young, potentially black victims...
