I was deeply concerned to read in the Sunday Times on 13 August 2017 a letter from Inspector Neil Billany, head of the Metropolitan Police's taxi and private hire unit to Helen Chapman, Transport for London's head of taxis and private hire, in which, he accuses Uber of failing to report sex attacks and other "serious crimes" committed by its drivers, and of obstructing officers trying to investigate them. Can you tell me what action is in hand to address these serious allegations?
