  • PCD 1561 Hendon/Colindale – Disposal and Development Update

    Page type: Decision

    • Date signed:
    • Reference code: PCD 1561
    MOPAC approved the disposal of the freehold interest in two circa 1 hectare sites at Hendon training centre in Colindale in February 2020, PCD697. The sites are part of a portfolio planning arrangement agreed with the Mayor, and the management of the disposal is being undertaken by the GLA using the London Development Panel 2 (LDP2). In February 2022 (PCD1109) MOPAC approved the award of the preferred bidder status to the highest scoring bidder (Optivo, with Countryside as a partner in a joint venture) for the sale and development of the two sites at Hendon; MOPAC’s entry into the development agreement, building leases and necessary ancillary agreements; and a delegation to the MOPAC Chief Finance Officer to finalise the detail of the development agreement, building leases and ancillary agreements. Following the selection of the preferred bidder there were considerable changes in the market and as a result of these changes and the impact on the proposed development scheme, the scheme was no longer deliverable in line with the winning bid. The GLA and MOPAC agreed that the bidders who had previously submitted a bid at Invitation to Tender (ITT) should be asked to re-submit tenders. This paper seeks approval for the appointment of Countryside as the preferred bidder as a result of this retender.

  • PCD 1515 Determination on whether former Police Constable (FPC) David Carrick’s pension should be forfeited in whole or in part, permanently or temporarily, or at all

    Page type: Decision

    • Date signed:
    • Reference code: PCD 1515
    Former PC (‘FPC’) Carrick was convicted of a number of offences committed in connection with his service as a member of the Metropolitan Police Service (‘MPS’).

The next stage is for the Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime (‘DMPC’) to determine whether FPC Carrick’s pension should be forfeited in whole or in part, permanently or temporarily, or at all. She has decided that FPC Carrick’s pension be forfeited at a level of forfeiture of 65% (this is the maximum amount that can be forfeited) on a permanent basis.

  • PCD 1255 - Shared Endeavour Fund Call 3 Uplift

    Page type: Decision

    • Date signed:
    • Date published:
    • Reference code: PCD 1255
    This decision seeks Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime (DMPC) approval to allocate an additional £125,000 to the funding for Call 3 of the Mayor’s Shared Endeavour Fund.
    The Shared Endeavour Fund is a grants programme for civil society groups that can deliver impactful projects in London that directly counter extremism, offer positive alternatives to vile ideologies, protect Londoners vulnerable to radicalisation and encourage more people to stand up to racism, hate and intolerance.
    Decision PCD 1074 gave approval for the funding of Call 3 of the Shared Endeavour Fund to take place in 2022/23, with an allocated fund budget of £600,000. This decision seeks to increase the total 2022/23 grant allocation to £725,000 as there are further project proposals which will deliver important impact in London against key challenge areas that could be funded through an uplift.
    The additional funding would secure a total of 22 civil society projects that tackle racism, hate, intolerance, extremism and radicalisation across the ideological spectrum. This includes projects working across multiple delivery themes (such as educational, sports and arts based projects) and which challenge multiple harm themes with an array of different beneficiary cohorts across the whole of London.
  • PCD 1480 202223 Quarter 4 Budget Monitoring Report

    Page type: Decision

    • Date signed:
    • Date published:
    • Reference code: PCD 1480
    This report sets out the 2022/23 draft outturn for MOPAC and MPS as at 31 March 2023. This is the final financial monitoring report for the year and should be considered alongside the published quarterly monitoring report that also sets out key outcomes information.
    In February 2022 the 2022/23 revenue budget was set at £3,186.2m. Subsequent changes to the budget were approved (for example, to reflect additional grant funding, other income and changes to the application of reserves).
    At Quarter Three the net revised budget was £3,185.1m. The Quarter Four budget includes further changes, reflecting additional grant funding of £80.8m and other income of £3.3m and a net reduction in the use of reserves of £27.9m - these changes require DMPC approval under the Scheme of Delegation. The net revised budget remains unchanged at £3,185.1m to the position reported at Quarter Three.
    The revised budget was £3,185.1m and the MOPAC and MPS draft outturn position against this is an underspend of £3.0m.
    At Quarter Two a revised capital budget was approved of £321.8m. The draft outturn is £269.2m, an underspend of £52.6m.
    The draft outturn position on reserves is also set out in the report. Earmarked reserves have reduced from an opening balance of £522.7m to £448.7m at the end of 2022/23. The reduction in reserves is £49.5m less than anticipated when the budget was set due several reasons including reprofiling of projects into future financial years, and changes in planned usage of reserves.

  • PCD 1519 My Ends 2 Evaluation & extension reprofile 25/26

    Page type: Decision

    • Date signed:
    • Date published:
    • Reference code: PCD 1519
    Since April 2021, the VRU’s place based MyEnds programme has been providing support and funding for communities to lead and deliver interventions across eight neighbourhoods affected by high and sustained levels of violence across London.
    Following the promising first year of the programme, on 12 July 2022, the Mayor was pleased to announce a further £9 million funding for the VRU flagship community-led programme to tackle violence and deliver positive opportunities for young people. This allowed the VRU to extend the delivery of the MyEnds programme across all eight currently commissioned neighbourhoods for a further 15 months from 1 April 2023 until 30 June 2024. This has been approved via PCD 1149 dated 25 May 2022.
    PCD 1149 also enables us to utilise the learning from the interim process & impact evaluations, as well as feedback from existing MyEnds partners & boroughs to design and commission an evolved iteration of the programme and continue to deliver hyperlocal responses to violence. The current decision under PCD 1149 only approves allocation for one year of MyEnds 2.0. In order for us to implement key activity strands, demonstrate impact and achieve the projected outcomes, we require a minimum of two years funding and therefore request for MyEnds 2.0 to be extended until 31 March 2026. This may also mean extending further into 2026/2027 and 2027/2028 subject to a suitable funding stream being available.
    A portion of the total allocation for the first year of MyEnds 2.0 will be assigned and evenly distributed into sustainability grants amongst the 8 commissioned partners from the original iteration. This is to assist partners with sustainability after the decommissioning of the first iteration concluding June 2024.
    The VRU’s commissioning approach is centered on using evidence and intelligence to ensure projects are operating in the areas they are needed most, and that learning is being effectively captured and evaluated for long term change. In accordance with this, the VRU is keen to also commission an external evaluation partner to ensure constant iteration and development is grounded in evidence and dynamic learning for MyEnds 2.0, scheduled 1 April 2024 until 31 March 2026.
    PCD1351 requested a Community Needs Assessment for MyEnds 2.0 which will provide a detailed assessment of local need to support MyEnds consortiums in their strategy development during the programmes mobilisation phase.
    This proposal is to (a) allocate a total of £ 3,000,000 for 2025/2026 to extend MyEnds 2.0 for two years delivery and (b) fund the evaluation of the intended two-year lifespan of the programme, covering 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2026.

  • PCD 1575 Parent Carer Champion Network extension

    Page type: Decision

    • Date signed:
    • Date published:
    • Reference code: PCD 1575
    The Violence Reduction Unit’s parenting and families work focuses on developing stronger and more resourceful families (to better support young people). The Unit takes a ‘whole family approach’ to reducing violence. Programmes in this space focus on building strong parental and family relationships and supporting organisations and agencies to work together to engage families and support their needs.
    The Violence Reduction Unit has invested in a Parent Carer Champion Network (approved in PCD 1442, 1295,1263 and CEOD 29/23) which has already supported over 7,000 parents and carers to increase their confidence in parenting and improve their family relationships. The Network is empowering and providing opportunities for parents and carers to shape their own lives, and an external evaluation (approved in CEOD 29/23) will commence in 2023/24 Q4 to establish the effectiveness of the Network’s approach to reaching its high level intended outcomes.
    This decision seeks approval to extend the programme for a year across FY 2024/25 by £1,305,000, so the Network in 29 boroughs, being delivered through 27 grassroots voluntary sector organisations, can continue to run building a wider evidence base whilst a process and impact evaluation is undertaken by a commissioned evaluation partner.
