How do you think the move from the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority to London Fire Commissioner has gone?

Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: My questions are about your future priorities and whether your budget will impact on your fire safety work, especially relating to tackling dangerous household electrical goods. I know the London Fire Brigade has a really good record here, but the challenges you are facing are soaring with internet sales particularly. I have read that in London every day a dangerous electrical good counts for one fire, which is a really significant figure, and we know from the Grenfell [Tower] inquiry that that almost certainly started from a fridge-freezer. Electrical Safety First highlights that the key problem...

Gareth Bacon AM: I do not know who would be best to answer this. It is just a quick sally into finances. We are going to have a deeper dive on this next week when you are in front of the Budget and Performance Committee, but what is the most recent revenue forecast outturn for 2018/19? This was reported in August [2018] but, according to the London Fire Brigade papers, at the end of June the financial position was an underspend of £7.3 million, which is roughly 1.8% of your budget. Is that still the position or has that moved...

Let us move on to the drug intervention programme. Obviously you are having the budget for this devolved from the Home Office. It is a considerable sum of money. How are you going to manage the programme?

I wanted to pick up first on Project Daedalus and then moving forward on that. Obviously in the detailed evaluation report that we have had it showed the reoffending rate for those leaving the Heron Unit was 53%, whereas the national reoffending rate was 70%, but that was only for the first cohort. I am wondering, are you going to be looking at the later cohorts to assess what their reoffending rate was - which would mean we probably would not get the final details until the end of next year?

Tony Arbour (AM): Do you have any views on that, Stephen?

I want to ask about, and we have touched on it a little bit, the consultation that is going to be taking place and is taking place on the Local Policing Model, the Estate Strategy and the Police and Crime Plan. We have heard so many different things about this, perhaps, Stephen, if we could just start off with you, if you could just clarify to us exactly what will be consulted on in January. I think you said 7 January. What is going to be in it in terms of will there be options around the estate, will there...

Yes, this is interesting. This has really come as a bit of a bombshell because much of the consultation and the discussion which has taken place up until now has been predicated on the proposal that there is going to be increasing co-operation between boroughs and that there may well be a change in the rank of the person who is in charge in a particular borough. I can tell you of the meetings that I have been at that this has been something quite considerable. You have told us today that effectively everything is back in the melting pot...

Just to go back briefly, I have two questions if I may please, just to go back and follow up what Len just said about sector inspectors. The working group chair in Kensington and Chelsea recently wrote to us because they had nine sector inspectors over a very recent period of time. I just want to sort of reiterate that the confidence or the feeling that gives about the Metropolitan Police Service, about changing culture, where there is a constant staff changeover, you know, obviously inevitably there is a feeling of one is losing out on experienced corporate memory and...

I just want to pick up that with the big redevelopment of your training facilities up at Hendon, I was just wondering, there are huge challenges there I think over the next three years. You are going to have to take staff and trainees off that site while it is rebuilt. A very brief update - you might want to send more details in writing - on progress so far. For the Deputy Mayor, do you think you have the relevant staff within your Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime to manage a project on this scale? I am wondering...
