  • Protecting Londoners' human rights

    • Reference: 2017/3584
    • Question by: Siân Berry
    • Meeting date: 14 September 2017
    With increases in the number of Metropolitan Police officers armed with firearms and tasers, and the use of intrusive tactics such as spit hoods and stop and search, what steps are you taking to ensure the human rights of all Londoners are respected?
  • Mayor's manifesto commitments (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Siân Berry
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2016
    Sian Berry AM: I would like to ask for some quick clarification on some of the details of the London Living Rent homes within your funding programme, if that is OK. This product is not quite what renters were expecting. It is very similar to the Government’s existing Rent to Buy Scheme, which is not suitable for everyone. I wanted to ask. The Government’s Rent to Buy Scheme requires a good credit rating. Can you reassure Londoners worried that their credit history might hinder their ability to apply for London Living Rent homes that they will not need to have...
  • Mayor's manifesto commitments (Supplementary) [12]

    • Question by: Florence Eshalomi MP
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2016
    Florence Eshalomi AM: Good morning, Deputy Mayor. You may be aware that one of the things the Government was supposed to announce in the Autumn Statement was the whole announcement around the buy-as-you-go thought to help more people get on to the housing ladder. Do you think that would help in addressing the London housing crisis?
  • Future of the Metropolitan Police Service (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Florence Eshalomi MP
    • Meeting date: 06 July 2016
    Florence Eshalomi AM: Thank you, Madam Chair. Good morning to you, Commissioner, and Mr Mayor. I just wanted to go back to some of the points raised by Assembly Member Bailey in terms of the night Tube. The first two lines are coming in in less than six weeks from today, and I am very happy that one of them will be going through my constituency, the Victoria line. I just wanted to go back to some of the points that you raised, Commissioner, in terms of the impact of the 24-hour licence, and this is an issue that has...
  • Meeting London’s Current and Future Policing Needs (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Kit Malthouse
    • Meeting date: 09 December 2014
    Commissioner, Mr Mayor, a variety of questions from me. First of all, just on the FGM one, do you have any sense of the level of resources that are currently applied to this particular issue, how many officers, is there a team of 20 or 200?
  • Meeting London’s Current and Future Policing Needs (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Kit Malthouse
    • Meeting date: 09 December 2014
    OK, the other area I wanted to ask you about was the horse, the mounted units, an area I know that is close to your heart. There has been some research recently about the effectiveness of mounted police officers, both in visibility and in terms of enforcement. In effectiveness, I do not know if you have seen the hilarious video of a motorcyclist just on London Wall, I think doing a wheelie, being stopped by a mounted police officer very effectively and dealt with. What are the plans for the mounted units going forward?
  • Meeting London’s Current and Future Policing Needs (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Kit Malthouse
    • Meeting date: 09 December 2014
    Then I just wanted to clarify the situation on Westminster and police stations, since Murad [Qureshi] raised it. My understanding is that Westminster will be like a Belgravia, West End Central and Paddington Green, is that right? Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe QPM (Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis): Sorry? Kit Malthouse AM: The City of Westminster will have three stations in the plan, which is Belgravia, West End Central and Paddington Green, will remain.
  • Violent Crime in London (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Kit Malthouse
    • Meeting date: 09 December 2014
    Sir Bernard, in your long and distinguished career, has there been any crime type, the statistics of which have followed a linear progression, either up or down, or has it always been two steps forward, one step back?
  • Transparency in the Metropolitan Police Service (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 09 December 2014
    Yes, thank you, Chair. I have a couple of questions for the Commissioner and for the Mayor. It is moving away; it is still on transparency but it is moving away from the topic raised by my colleague. Roger Evans AM (Chair): Not too far. Jennette Arnold OBE AM (Deputy Chair): Not too far but it is just to do with transparency. My question is in terms of transparency, in terms of what the MPS says and what the MPS does. I think that is really a good link. I want to ask the Commissioner in terms of what the...

    • Meeting date: 09 December 2014
    Commissioner, is the Metropolitan Police planning any more days of action to help tackle knife crime following the success of Operation Big Wing?
