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?

An FOI reply from the Metropolitan Police last month, provides evidence of an increase of 50% from the previous years, in sexual assaults carried out by Uber drivers. 48 offences were recorded. Do you agree that this a shocking and appalling statistic? Do you believe that this is unacceptable and proves that the licensing of Uber and its business model endangers the public, particularly vulnerable women?
