  • 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 London’s Current and Future Policing Needs (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 09 December 2014
    My first set of questions are actually for the Commissioner, if I may, and I have some for the Mayor following that. Thank you for the comments about the Autumn Statement and the difficulties financially that the police are going to have in the future. A couple of weeks ago the Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime talked about drastic and dangerous police cuts which will have to happen. You have talked, I believe, today, and I have certainly had reports from ITN, that it would be difficult to maintain the 32,000 police officers on an ongoing basis. Could I...
  • Meeting London’s Current and Future Policing Needs (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 09 December 2014
    Thank you, Chair. Good afternoon, Commissioner. Good afternoon, Mayor. Commissioner, can I just talk to you about police response times? I can see from the tables which MOPAC has provided to us that the emergency response times of the police across London for the past two years have slipped in the wrong direction, particularly for Category S, which is the ‘respond in one hour’, and Category E, which is the ‘respond to within 48 hours’. Second and third priority response times have gotten worse. I notice this particularly because it has affected my own borough; Southwark have lost 5% of...

    What are your greatest risks?
  • Transport (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    Just a quick question in my usual friendly fashion. Many of my constituents and a lot of Londoners will be very anxious that, particularly in the light of the events of the last week - and I know Lord Coe has commented on this already - that any perception that the ORN was some sort of bung to make it easy for rich men in blazers - in some cases corrupt men in blazers - to drive around London - would be very strongly resisted. Dee Doocey (Chair): Your question, Mr Biggs? John Biggs (AM): The question is here. Londoners...
  • Transport (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    We all wish heartily for a very successful Games but I hope you will understand, therefore, it is important to get the worries out and debated and sorted early in advance of the event itself. As you know the Transport Committee has been doing a scrutiny exercise. We are midway through it and we are due to see you in the New Year. I wanted to put to you some of the worries that seem to be coming up through that process that we need to be resolved. London's councils were very unhappy about the lack of sharing of detailed...
  • Transport (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    John, I want to follow up on my colleague's, Val Shawcross', questions and I want to add the concerns of many of my constituents who, as you know, live in Hackney, Islington and Waltham Forest. I can assure you that, although we can sit here gladly talking about traffic orders and the discussions there, what they are concerned about and what they want to know as soon as possible - and they should be knowing now - is will the orders be over 40 days and nights? I have put that figure together in terms of the Games, the gap...
  • Risks (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    The question is about climate change as a risk; two different aspects of it. One the risk to London's carbon footprint because, however much you are making savings, you are still increasing the carbon. I would like some figures. The second one is the risk of extreme weather events.

  • Risks (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2010
    Can I take a different tack with the ticket issue which is very important to sporting fans before transport and getting there. It is the reputational damage risk. The one thing that harmed the Sydney Games was 10,000 Australians, allegedly, applied for free public tickets for one of the triathlon sessions. I want assurances from LOCOG we are not going to have the same incident here and there will be the fair availability of reasonably priced tickets, which we all want?
