Dee on the London Assembly

I am a London-wide member of the London Assembly. On this site, you can see how I go about making your voice and vote count in the Greater London Authority (GLA).

London Assembly work

This includes "holding the Mayor to account" through Mayor's Question Time, plenary sessions and comments to the media. We also "raise issues of concern to Londoners". I chair the London Assembly's Economic Development, Culture, Sports and Tourism Committee, which is the lead committee for scrutinising the delivery of the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

As well as my work as Chair of the Committee I also carry out individual campaigns and surveys - if you have an issue that you would like me to take up then do please get in touch.

Metropolitan Police Authority (MPA) work

My work on the MPA is very varied and includes holding the Commissioner to account (at the MPA Full Authority meetings, which are held in public each month) and dealing with a range of policing issues through the committee structure. I also investigate issues of concern to Londoners through detailed survey work.

I chair the Metropolitan Police Authority's committee that deals with Olympic and Paralympic security and sit on the Home Office Olympic Security Board, which has overall responsibility for the security of the 2012 Games. The London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Safety and Security Strategy was published in July and can be found here: http://tiny.cc/ma0YZ

I sat on the Metropolitan Police Authority's Stockwell scrutiny, which has made a series of wide-ranging recommendations to the Met. My current workload includes membership of the Estates Panel and the Civil Liberties Panel.
