Safer Neighbourhood Boards

  • Reference: 2014/2660
  • Question by: James Cleverly
  • Meeting date: 23 July 2014
I have heard local concerns about the new Safer Neighbourhood Boards related to the fact that some of those involved feel there is too much top-down coordination and that this will act as a disincentive to volunteers. Will you agree to examine these concerns and see how they can be rectified?

Interactive computer police kiosks

Would you consider piloting an interactive computer police kiosk, currently being piloted in Cheshire?

London Tourism Numbers

  • Reference: 2014/2657

  • Meeting date: 23 July 2014
I note the news that London received over 3.6 million overseas visits in the first three months of 2014, resulting in the highest ever first quarter visitor numbers in the city's history. What plans do you have to maintain these high levels of visitors to London, ensuring we maintain our place as one of the world's favourite tourist destination?

Proactive policing and cost savings

  • Reference: 2014/2656
  • Question by: Andrew Boff
  • Meeting date: 23 July 2014
My report, Shadow City, proved in its Return on Investment model that proactive work would provide long term savings around trafficking and sexual exploitation and so avoid these huge inquiries. In Shadow City, I spoke to stakeholders who could name specific parks and schools in London where the sexual exploitation of children was taking place. Would the police be willing to proactively investigate these cases?
