Mr Mayor, could you, if possible, do some research and produce a figure that would analyse the effect on housing funding of adopting the Labour Party’s plan to restrict council house sales? Because of course now under this Government we have an agreement that the proceeds from council house sales can be used in order to build new council houses.

Mr Mayor, I am rather perplexed by what Tom Copley has just been telling you, because are you aware that Wandsworth Council apparently granted planning permission for over 1,000 affordable homes last year, by far the highest of any council in London?

Mr Mayor, I thought you had told some of these boroughs that they would have to set up their own LEZ areas, however from what you have just said it sounds as if you have not done that; therefore, when you consult on your scheme will you include the option for boroughs to opt in to your LEZ scheme rather than create their own?

It was widely said by your political opponents that in times of cuts and recession crime was likely to increase in London. We have heard from you and we have heard from the Commissioner, very encouragingly, that crime figures are improving, crime rates are going down. Can you assure me, and indeed London, that crime truly is decreasing, or is it related to the fact that crime is being screened out?

The Police and Crime Committee report in August last year asked MOPAC to provide clear guidance about who is expected to sit on SNTs and how will they be representative of their communities. Mr Mayor, the question I would like to put to you is what are you doing to ensure that these boards are representative of London?

I have a question for the Mayor. I am concerned that people’s anecdotal examples should be taken quite seriously because this is what people are telling us on the doorstep, what Caroline is picking up, what Joanne is picking up, what everybody who has spoken about the anecdotes is picking up on the doorstep. I do not ever remember a time when fear of crime has come up as much as it is currently on the doorstep. It is notable for every single time, and I go several times a week knocking on doors, annoying people, asking them if they...

This is a question for the Commissioner. Sir Bernard, we had a very useful meeting, I felt, in Redbridge last month when you came along and spoke to local people there and some of them raised concerns they had around crime and confidence in the police locally. One of my constituents from Wanstead asked you if we could reinstate the Ringmaster telephone system to alert people to crime problems in their area. You made a commitment at the time that that was something you would look at, if you could update us on that.

I take it as genuine that the change in neighbourhood policing is intended to make London safer. This is a question to the Mayor. How do you deal with the fact that there has been a massive increase, more than doubling in recorded wounding and grievous bodily harm (GBH) under this new responsive model?

• Question by: Joanne McCartney
• Meeting date: 05 March 2014

I will start with the Commissioner, if I may. I am glad to see you are reviewing it, because about a year ago you said that this time you would have a review about the LPM. How long do you expect that review to take and will you make the results public to this Assembly?

Mr Mayor, if you had £50 million, £60 million or £70 million - we are not quite sure what the bill on HS2 is going to be yet to the national purse - but if you had that money spare, would you rather spend it on connecting London to Birmingham, connecting London to the rest of the world or connecting southwest London to northeast London?
