Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: I am pleased to hear, Mr Mayor, that tackling knife crime is a priority for you and is one of the greatest policing challenges we face in the capital, and it has been referenced at the weekend, a 16-year-old boy stabbed to death in Notting Hill, the fourth teenager to have been killed on our streets this year. It is clear we need to start investing in prevention in order to help reduce knife crime on the streets.

Unmesh Desai AM: Commissioner, as the Mayor has just said a few minutes ago, there is a huge amount of uncertainty hanging there right now. We all have to accept the results of the referendum. Let me ask you specifically how the referendum affects the MPS in two or three areas.

The Police and Crime Bill published on 10 February 2016 when enacted will place duty on police, fire and rescue and ambulance services to collaborate. Do you think that the new duty to collaborate, in the words of Dave Brown QFSM, the Chief Operations Officer for the London Fire Brigade, moves there from collaborated through goodwill to collaboration through being embedded in policy and governance? Do you agree this a more formal relationship now? First of all, can you comment on that?

Leonie Cooper AM: Thank you, Madam Chair. Eid Mubarak to yourself and Saadiya [Khan], Mr Mayor, and very nice to see the Commissioner with us as well this morning. I just wanted to come back to the issue of neighbourhood policing, which has been touched on both Mr Mayor, and also your introductory remarks and also has come up a few times as well around the room. I did not quite recognise what Assembly Member O’Connell was talking about. It might be because we now represent, on our side, the majority of the geographical constituencies in London, but I know...
