Motion detail

Shaun Bailey AM moved, and Steve O’Connell AM seconded, the altered following motion:

 

“This Assembly is thankful to police officers, past and present, for the work they do in keeping London safe and appreciates the risk they face every day. This Assembly further recognises that injuries and mental health issues faced by police officers do not disappear when they retire. Therefore, this Assembly calls upon the Mayor and the Metropolitan Police Service to review the support it gives to retired police officers and to come back with a plan on how to help those who need it.

 

Furthermore, this Assembly commits to working towards eradicating the stigma associated with talking about mental health and wellbeing in London, to ensure that all Londoners can discuss their mental health without fear of repercussions.”

 

Following debate the motion as altered was agreed unanimously.
