  • Leveson Inquiry

    • Reference: 2012/0068-2
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 20 December 2012
    Does the Metropolitan Police Service actually accept in broad principle the findings of the Leveson Inquiry?
  • Operation Condor

    • Reference: 2012/0071-2
    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 20 December 2012
    Yes, we have just got a few questions about Operation Condor, and I think my colleague, Andrew, has some questions about this as well. Deputy Commissioner, you recently carried out the operation in my corner of town in Havering and Redbridge, I think you arrested one person in Havering and nobody in Redbridge. How do you judge the impact of a large-scale operation like that against the resource costs?
  • Leveson Inquiry (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 20 December 2012
    Obviously because the time has slipped for getting bids in to you by the end of February but the schemes are going to be starting in April, the new financial year, it does not give them very much leeway. Will you be giving them some extra leeway in how they can deliver those schemes?
  • Drug Intervention Programme (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 20 December 2012
    Can I just ask one question before we leave this section on violence against women and girls. We did hear in one of our earlier sessions that there is a shortage of refuge places in London. Is that something that MOPAC can look at, the demand and the need for that as well?
  • Targets

    • Reference: 2012/0050-2
    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 25 October 2012
    I think my colleagues may have picked some of the cherries out of this by the time I got here. Just to explore the targets, first of all, Deputy Commissioner, let us talk about the culture that target-setting creates. How do you make sure that the targets which you set drive performance and measure performance rather than create incentives to do things that we would not want people to do, make people focus in the wrong direction or even dare I say it fabricate results?
  • Police Registration Certificates

    • Reference: 2012/0055-2
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 25 October 2012
    I am going to move on now to police registration certificates. I have been contacted by the University of London Union and there have been press reports about the debacle that happened only a few weeks ago where I understand that students who are foreign nationals have to register with the police. Recently the category of students who have to register has been widely widened. I understand that the numbers are now higher. We have had reports that the MPS has struggled to cope with demand and that some of the information given by the police may have been confusing...
  • 20-20-20 (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 25 October 2012
    Can I ask what that will mean for resource allocation across the piece? We often hear particularly from different boroughs and from the police that when targets come down centrally you go after one crime type and then others suffer. Can I ask Craig Mackey what these targets could mean for resource allocation to deal with issues that Fiona [Twycross] and we would raise, perhaps domestic violence? Would it mean that other areas would not get the same priority?
  • Borough Command Units (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 25 October 2012
    Obviously you have quite a bit of flexible working between boroughs and within your own service. Are you looking at more flexible working with shared services involving the other emergency services?
  • Borough Command Units (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 27 September 2012
    Joanne McCartney (Chair): Can I ask on the consultation: is it going to go on to be a full public consultation at some point?
  • Borough Command Units (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 27 September 2012
    I have been briefed by both my borough commanders, although they did not let me take the documents away unlike some other people, so practice has varied from place to place. However, I am pleased with the liaison I have had with my guys. I just wanted to ask a bit more about the future structure for managing boroughs. As someone who represents two boroughs, actually, I can see an attractiveness in having one person who is the go-to for policing for me in those two boroughs. I do not think that should be sacrosanct. However, below that structure, are...
