  • Deaths in Custody (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 27 September 2012
    Yes, Chair, thank you for that. I just wanted to clarify, and it is the point that Jenny has made. To so many people, when we talk about deaths in police custody, we include deaths associated with police contact. The public does not get into the sophistication of whether somebody died in the cell, it is if the police are there and they have arrested somebody or they have something to do with it and a death occurs, then that really is what is so alarming to us generally, to us all. If I could go specifically to members of...
  • Community Policing

    • Reference: 2012/0028-2
    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 21 June 2012
    The other part of it we have touched on, London's diverse communities. You gave a reasonable answer to your position on equality and diversity in your confirmation hearing. However, given that one of the key areas of concerns within many of the ethnic minority communities is the relationship with the police, is about their operational activities, what is your thinking so far to date about where your positioning will be?
  • Sapphire Unit

    • Reference: 2012/0030-2
    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 21 June 2012
    I have to start by saying that these were operational concerns that we had regarding the recent allegations made against the Metropolitan Police Service and the management performance of the Sapphire Unit. I will then have to start off by asking the Deputy Mayor does he feel that he is in a position to answer questions about the operation or functionality of the Metropolitan Police Service Sapphire Unit. If he is not, then basically I will have to pass on my question.
  • Olympic Route Network (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2009
    OK. The other thing around the ORN would be if you can confirm the discussions that you are having with local authorities about the enforcement regime. Will that be handed over to LOCOG or will the lead on the enforcement of the ORN rest with local authorities?
  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [24]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Can I just firstly thank Peter for his interest in my constituents and ask David [Higgins], would he agree with me that there are clear issues that we have to stay on top of. For instance, the travellers have still got to be dealt with. I have seen information that is suggesting that monitoring is going on. What I am not seeing is any written evidence about that, so I think what you could do, certainly to help Peter, myself and others, is to actually release information about the monitoring. I think that would help the different bodies interested in...
  • Legacy Master plan for the Olympic Park (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    OK. Can I just go back to Hackney. Hackney Wick station is the closest station to the future employment use in that location. However there are currently no plans to provide a direct pedestrian link. Don't you think it will be a missed opportunity if we can't get a direct link from Hackney Wick to the Olympic Park? I do not understand why this is missing and there has been pressure put but we can't seem to get any answer.
  • Procurement (Supplementary) [12]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    Can I just take you back? I was in here when we were all happy on the day of the bid. Clearly, at the heart of this bid was the benefit for East London and we have been joined by the stars of the future from East London. (Brian Coleman (Chairman): I think you are referring to Malmesbury Primary School from the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, who arrived just too late to see the earlier outburst which would have fitted very well, I suspect, with a primary school class.) My question relates to them, David. I am sure if...
  • Progress Update (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    Due to the positive nature of those changes, it is very well to communicate them [but] can you again assure us about your communication strategy briefly, should there be any changes which may arise because of some negative impact that you find?
  • Progress Update (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    Welcome David. I speak as the Assembly Member for Hackney, Islington and Waltham Forest. My question follows on from what you just said about the changes to the Masterplan. Thank you for communicating those changes in the quick and efficient way that you did. Can you assure us that final is final and that we can now settle down and work to the changes that we now know of?
