Agenda item

Counter Terrorism

The Director of Community and Children Services updated the Group regarding the Counter-Terrorism Security Bill. As a result of the legislation a Counter Terrorism form was being formulated and would be brought to the next Policy and Resources Committee and would also be going to the next meeting of the Group. 

Resident Update

Barbara Gough informed the Group that since she started attending the Safer City Partnership she had been impressed by the collaborative working of the Group. She noted that before she became a Member she was concerned with her general safety. However, since becoming a Member she was more aware of the work that both the City of London Corporation and the City of London Police did and she felt much safer. She concluded by inviting the Assistant Director for Street Scene and Built Environment and Superintendent McKoy to the next Barbican Estate Annual General Meeting.

Street Pastors

The Community Safety Manager informed the Group that she had been working with Superintendent McKoy to educate people on the role of Street Pastors. They hoped to provide a report to the next meeting on their work.
