Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hamwee (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 8 May 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Greater London Authority Bill.


Greater London Authority Bill

That point concerns me greatly as well. As I understood it, we were being told that they would or could be moved by the Mayor in accordance with the risk management plan. However, I believe that that plan is a matter for LFEPA. Quite apart from the objection in principle to the Mayor having such a power, I do not understand the logic. Moreover, I know that LFEPA is doing a great deal of work to increase the number of its firefighters from black and minority ethnic communities and the number of women.
