Councillor Martin Whelton was nominated by Léonie Cooper AM; the nomination was seconded by Unmesh Desai AM. There being no other nominations, Councillor Martin Whelton was duly appointed as Vice- Chair of the Authority for the period until 30 September 2017. Resolved – accordingly. 4. Minutes The motion was made by the Chair – that the minutes of the Authority meeting held on 30 March 2017 be signed as a correct record. The motion was seconded by Councillor Martin Whelton, put and agreed. Resolved – accordingly. The minutes were thereupon signed by the Chair. 5. Special Announcements by the Chair and reports by the Chair or the Clerk to the Authority of any Communications The Chair thanked the Brigade’s officers for all their hard work over the Easter period. The Chair reported that on 17 March the Brigade received multiple calls to a fire in a 2nd floor flat in Islington. A crew wearing breathing apparatus entered the flat, extinguished the fire, carried out a search and rescued two dogs. At the same time a ‘Fire Survival Guidance’ call was in progress for occupants of a flat on the 4th floor in the same block. A second breathing apparatus crew was immediately sent to the 4th floor. Whilst control officers continued to provide reassurance to the occupants on the phone, firefighters forced entry to the flat and rescued the two adults inside. The Chair reported that on 3 April the Brigade was called to a fire at the Riverside Mental Health Unit within Hillingdon Hospital. On arrival, crews found the door to be barricaded from the inside. Firefighters forced entry, extinguished the fire and carried out a thorough search in breathing apparatus. They located a 30 year old man in a bathroom, unconscious and breathing with difficulty. Crews administered oxygen and promoted recovery until the London Ambulance Service arrived. The Chair reported that on 12 April the Brigade was called to fire in a two storey builder’s yard near to Brent Cross Shopping Centre. The fire was believed to have started on the ground floor but quickly spread throughout the buildings and involved high bay racking of timber storage and a number of propane gas cylinders, some of which exploded due to the fire. Undergrowth adjacent to the nearby railway lines also caught fire. Twelve pumping appliances and two aerial ladder platforms attended the incident. There were no reported injuries. The nearby M1 motorway and adjacent rail lines were closed due to the amount of smoke caused by the fire. The Chair announced that LFB Fire Cadets continued to go from strength to strength. There were now twelve active units across London and the programme was due to expand again in September with the introduction of a Marine Fire Cadet Unit based at the Fireboat Pontoon in Lambeth, to be run in partnership with the Massey Shaw Education Trust, the RNLI and the Sea Cadets. Furthermore, the Chair added that two LFB Cadets had done exceptionally well, and from over 10,000 applicants, they are through to the final 32 young people aspiring towards the esteemed Duke of Westminster Award. This prestigious competition was held to find the most determined and selfless ten uniformed cadets from across the UK, and the winners were to experience the trip of a lifetime in South Africa. Finally, three LFB Fire Cadets had just secured their places to go to Nepal later in the year on a fundraising project in conjunction with Cheshire Fire Cadets. They would be raising money for the ‘Classrooms in the Cloud’ charity, which helps to rebuild earthquake damaged schools in the mountains of Nepal. The Chair, on behalf of the Authority, thanked Florence Eshalomi AM for all her work on the Authority over the last year, during which she had served as Vice-Chair of Governance, Performance and Audit Committee. The Chair wished her all the best for the future and handed her a small gift as a token of appreciation. 6.

This page is intentionally left blank Agenda Item 4 Councillors Morrison and Anwar along with the Scrutiny Manager attended the Lewisham Youth Independent Advisory Group at Lewisham Police Station on Thursday 24th January 2019. The group started a year ago and was designed to be a safe space for young people and a chance to chat to local Police and share concerns and ideas. The Police were working with schools. This was happening more now compared to the past but there was always room for improvement. There were 11 young women at the meeting and all felt that they didn’t mind the idea of stop and search and it could make people feel safer but it was important it was done “fairly and politely”. The young people reported that it could be a humiliating interaction and there should be more emphasis on respect and politeness.

  • Transcript of Item 7 - Tackling Allegations of Electoral Fraud and Malpractice – Part Two
    Appendix 3 Police and Crime Committee - Thursday, 9 February 2017 Transcript of Item 7 - Tackling Allegations of Electoral Fraud and Malpractice – Part Two Steve O’Connell AM (Chairman): Can I welcome our other invited guests? Thank you so much for your patience in bearing with us for the first session. First of all, we have Sir Ken Knight CBE QFSM, Tower Hamlets Commissioner; Mayor John Biggs, my old comrade -- Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: And the Mayor of Tower Hamlets. Steve O’Connell AM (Chairman): -- Councillor Peter Golds CBE, a Tower Hamlets councillor; and Francis Hoar, Barrister, Field Court Chambers. We are now going to address a case study. I am bound just to read out the statement, if you do not mind bearing with me. Before we begin the discussion, I would like to say: “There is an important role for the Tower Hamlets Commissioners who have powers to appoint persons to, and remove persons from, the statutory offices of Electoral Registration Officer and Returning Officer. It will be important for the Committee to hear about the work done by the Commissioners to ensure that the election process in Tower Hamlets can now command public confidence, particularly as the Government looks to hand control back to the local authority in March 2017. I would like to remind the Committee that the decisions of the Elections Commissioner, sitting as a High Court judge, are a matter of public record and can be referred to as such. If there are, however, further allegations of election fraud or malpractice about which determinations have not been made, this is not the appropriate place to hear them.

  • SPECIAL BRIEFING: LONDON MAYORAL and ASSEMBLY ELECTION RESULTS 2016 7 May 2016 Khan Storms Into City Hall
    SPECIAL BRIEFING: LONDON MAYORAL AND ASSEMBLY ELECTION RESULTS 2016 7 May 2016 Khan storms into City Hall Robert Gordon Clark Executive Chairman Sadiq Khan has been elected as Mayor of London with a comprehensive 57%-43% victory over Conservative Zac Goldsmith after second preference votes. He also returned the biggest ever first preference vote (1,148,716) for a mayoral candidate against the highest ever mayoral election turnout (45.6%). For Khan, the uber-campaigner who managed Labour’s success in London local elections in 2014 and in the capital’s 73 seats at the General Election last year, this is the pinnacle of his electoral achievements to date and confirmation should anyone need it that London is now a solidly left leaning city and one at ease with electing a first Muslim Mayor. Meanwhile the race for third was as tight as predicted with the Green Party’s Sian Berry repeating the party’s third place of 2012 with 6% of first preference votes, narrowly ahead of the Lib Dems’ Caroline Pidgeon on 5%. UKIP’s Peter Whittle was fifth with 4% followed by Sophie Walker of the Women’s Equality Party on 2%. Khan’s energy and enthusiasm for the mayoralty was evident right from the start of Labour’s selection contest where he overcame frontrunner Tessa Jowell. Hustings victory then morphed seamlessly into a mayoral campaign where he was much quicker than Goldsmith in activating party supporters and hitting the streets and airwaves with his vision for London. He also zoomed in on parts of the capital and communities where predecessor Ken Livingstone struggled in 2008 and 2012.

  • Mayor's Report to Council
    Mayor’s Report to Council 30th September 2020 John Biggs, Mayor of Tower Hamlets Key Events/Announcements Covid-19 This is our first council meeting since March, and in that time Covid-19 has had a massive impact on all of us. We have all had to get used to varying restrictions and changes to our normal daily lives, but this of course is insignificant in comparison to the suffering of those who have lost their lives, and those who have lost loved ones. Our thoughts are with those who have suffered so much, and our thoughts and gratitude are with those who are working on the frontline in public services during this extremely challenging time, including our dedicated and tireless council workers. We also owe a debt of gratitude to everyone in our borough who has come together to support one another and/or donated their time and money. From residents checking on their neighbours, to community groups and organised food delivery networks, to people just going about their daily lives and following the rules: thank you all. I hope our town hall communications campaigns and our many partnership gatherings and briefings have helped keep people safe. We need everyone in the borough to be an ambassador for safety and to defeat this terrible plague. Our response to Covid-19 As a second rise in infections hits us we must redouble, as leaders, as residents and our visitors, an unremitting focus on avoiding the spread of the virus. We know it has particularly affected our older and medically vulnerable residents and has had a higher impact on some BAME groups.
