My research and your response to my question 2017/2108 indicate that there is no consistent approach across the Metropolitan Police for when it is appropriate to release images of knives or other weapons. Will you prepare guidelines for when it is appropriate for pictures of weapons to be released to the press and on social media by the police?

Thank you for your response to my questions 2016/3093 and 2016/4620. I understand that there has been a delay since October 2016, and to my knowledge the Metropolitan Police Service/Transport for London Traffic Law Enforcement Annual Report is still not published. When will it be published?

Constituents are continuing to contact me with concerns that housing associations are increasing rents beyond social rent levels when there is a change of tenancy. How will you ensure that social rents are still available when homes change hands in these circumstances? Will you conduct a London-wide audit to reveal whether homes that have been provided at social rents by housing associations continue to be provided at these rent levels, and publish the findings?

I am encouraged to learn that your forthcoming database will include rogue letting agents as well as rogue landlords. My report, Letting them get away with it, published March 2017 revealed that there are huge variations in levels of letting agent enforcement between councils across London, which could have an impact on the effectiveness of your database. Will you contact local councils about this and help to address the differences in enforcement activity?
