Your Knife Crime Strategy published in June 2017, stated that there will be a prevention campaign launched in London in autumn 2017 to dissuade young people from carrying knives. There is concern from community groups that campaigns of this kind can frighten young people and, perversely, encourage young people to see their city as a dangerous place where they need to be routinely armed. How will the upcoming campaign aim to counter negative narratives of young people in London?

The appointment of the first London Victims' Commissioner is a positive step in representing victims' voices. The Lammy Review and community groups have raised concerns about the gathering and sharing of data in the Trident Matrix, for victims as well as perpetrators of crime, and the negative effect this has on racial disparity. How will the Trident Matrix review guarantee that victims of serious youth violence are not further penalised by being associated with youth crime?

Recommendation five of the Lammy Review advises consultation with voluntary and community sector groups on the review of the Trident Matrix, specifically to address racial disparity. When will this consultation take place, and how will you make a wide range of community and voluntary sector groups aware of it and encourage them to take part?

Could you confirm when the front counter service from Streatham police base will cease, whether it will continue as a base for ward police teams, and if so for how long?

• Meeting date: 16 November 2017

During the consultation period for the MOPAC Public Access and Engagement Strategy I specifically requested in my question 2017/3620 an extension to the table of crime reports for each front counter in Annex 3 to include other reasons for visiting each front counter. Your answer did not provide this table but referred me to information in a pie chart already in the consultation document, which summarised overall findings from the survey conducted but did not give the other reasons for visiting each front counter. Could you answer this question as originally asked and provide the table requested?
