Examination of Witness (Questions 100-103)
ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER
ALAN BROWN
26 APRIL 2006
Q100 Chairman: If you were able to
go ahead with what you have planned how would you guarantee funding
for the railway involvement of particular officers? How would
you ring-fence the finance needed?
Assistant Commissioner Brown:
It would be the subject of special service agreements, the same
as Transport for London and the bus network are currently.
Q101 Chairman: And you think that
that would be sufficient?
Assistant Commissioner Brown:
It has certainly worked well in relation to the policing of the
bus routes and that provision of public transport in London, yes.
Q102 Chairman: If the Government
rejects your proposal could this have a negative impact on policing
in London?
Assistant Commissioner Brown:
Yes.
Q103 Chairman: And on your relationship
with the British Transport Police?
Assistant Commissioner Brown:
No.
Chairman: Thank you very much. The connectivity
has been positively amazing. Thank you so much for coming.
