  • Budget Monitoring Subcommittee
    Appendix 3 Item 18 – Consideration of an Investigation Report Claer Lloyd-Jones (Chair, Independent Member): I would like to welcome Claire Lefort who is the author of the investigation report that we have here. Fiona [Ledden] is going to help us but I believe that the first decision that we need to make is that we agree to do this consideration in open session. Do we agree to do that? Committee Members: Yes. Claer Lloyd-Jones (Chair, Independent Member): Good, thank you very much. Fiona, I would like you to guide us through what we need to do now. Fiona Ledden (Head of Legal & Procurement, GLA): Very briefly, we have the investigation report for you. I, as Monitoring Officer, recommend the report and the conclusions to you. What you now need to do is you need to consider the recommendation and then you need to decide, on the basis of the recommendation, whether you accept it or whether you reject it and whether you follow the recommendations. Then following what you do I can then take you through the further steps. In your considerations I am sure you may well have some questions for Claire Lefort and you may want to explore whether or not there are any things that would be useful even if you decided that, on following the recommendation, this matter was not to go to a hearing. There may be issues that you think would be useful, such as training, to be undertaken so it is a matter for you to consider and discuss those items.

    Item 5, Appendix A Business Management and Administration Committee 28 April 2009 Transcript of Item 7: The Deputy Mayor, Government Relations Darren Johnson (Chair): What have been your key achievements in the past 12 months, Ian? Ian Clement (Deputy Mayor, Government Relations): I think in terms of pushing forward the Mayor’s commitment to work in a more focused and constructive fashion with the London boroughs. In terms of London boroughs, I think - and Assembly Members who also serve on councils will be aware, but I will repeat it for the record – the 32 plus 1 with the City of London we have a unique governance structure in London. I think the debate around whether that governance structure is right or wrong, ie the existence of a strategic Mayor, is now past and they are big players; big leaders in their own right and deliver statutory services and optional extra services that are decided through the ballot box on a four year term. If you look at the Mayoral objectives and the objective we all want to achieve - Assembly Members, local councillors, council leaders, the Mayor and us as residents - for London and Londoners - because ultimately we are here to serve whether we are elected or we are lucky enough to be doing a job that I do - we need to work with them or we will not get those things delivered. They deliver for London. We need to recognise that within the piece before we get out the metaphorical bed in the morning. In terms of my job I think we have made a start on that.

The aim of the Youth Scrutiny was to build a fuller and more comprehensive picture of youth crime. The vast majority of young people are neither violent nor criminals. Some are victims and often the voice of victims is lost. We wanted to understand better what drives some young people into criminality. We wanted to hear from young people about their views as citizens, as victims and as perpetrators of crime and much of this scrutiny has been geared to giving them a voice.
