Joanne McCartney AM: My question is to Niran. Looking forward at economic recovery, do you think there is a balance between jobs, in terms of the amount of jobs and job security we can offer, and making sure that companies offer good terms and conditions? Is that something that the Recovery Board has at the forefront of its mind?

Perhaps I can start with the Commissioner because we are meeting on the day that Lord Justice Leveson is to announce the results of his inquiry and recommendations. No doubt there will be recommendations with regards to the police as well. I just wondered if you could take a couple of minutes just to explain whether you have actually seen the report, know what the recommendations are and how the police are going to respond to it.

Can I just pick up some of the training issues then. I am very pleased you said you welcomed outside providers perhaps that deal with violence against women and girls to come in and do some training, because that is one of the issues that was raised with us from those support groups. I understand that particularly with you recruiting more PCs, part of your frontline training is now going to be computer based. How do you ensure the quality of that and the quality of response to vulnerable victims with that computer-based training?

Thank you. On behalf of our Group, I also thank the many officers for the bravery that they showed over the August period. As the Assembly Member for Tottenham, I think it would remiss of me if I did not ask some questions about what you, Tim, yesterday referred to the House of Commons Select Committee as 'the initial incident', and this was certainly to do with some of the questions that came out of the Select Committee yesterday. You stated yesterday that the response to the shooting of Mark Duggan could have been handled differently, and you referred to...

I was going to make a plug for us to have a base in Enfield and Haringey. Can I also a ask that when you are looking at this you look at some of the hot spots, particularly around schools? Right down the Hertford Road and the A10 in Enfield we have something like five secondary schools coming out on to the same bus routes, and I think that needs to be factored in to where you base 'Transport Safer Neighbourhood Teams.

Can I just check, these are for outer London and I understand they are going to be based in certain boroughs but be a `transport flying squad' and go round where the need arises?

A number of the issues I was going to raise have been dealt with but I wanted to ask about what the Commissioner has just said. TfL, as I understand it, are paying for the PCSOs and that is on the basis of the map of crime that they have, that is evidence based. It is about the boundaries. How then are you going to modify that? You have already taken on some views like Jo (McCartney) asking for an extension there. Do you not think it would be reasonable to stay with the evidence and so we know that...

These extra 375 officers which have been recruited. When are they envisaged to be in place?

The base in Enfield is very welcome, I know that. We have the estate strategy, and we then have the Safer Neighbourhood offices opening up, and there seems to be two strategies running alongside. I want to check that they are coordinated, so that when you are leases you are looking at that wide strategy at the same time as well?
