The Hackney Account group’s research report, Policing in Hackney: challenges from youth 2020, published in December 2020 ( https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5d234a046f941b0001dd1741/t/5f777…), makes a number of recommendations for improved policing, including this on the Territorial Support Group: “a meaningful independent evaluation of the TSG is urgently needed. This evaluation must include a detailed review carried out by academic researchers, community partners and independent police expertise (such as ex-police officers). The review should be supervised by the Mayor’s Office for Police and Crime (MOPAC) and contain actionable public recommendations with a commitment to reform from the MPS.” What is your response to this recommendation?

There was huge disappointment at your planning decision reference 2020/6774 regarding the Hondo tower in Lambeth, and enormous confusion about how it was made, with the GLA not providing timely information about the decision via local planning officers to local campaigners, leading them to be told they still had time to influence your decision when it had already been made. I have experienced this problem before with information about the planning process not being published on the GLA website in a timely fashion. What are you doing to improve the efficiency and transparency of these processes?
