As part of an extensive consultation process, officers have discussed the proposed calendar with at the GLA and other functional bodies, the MPS, leading officers within the MPA, as well as chairs of committees and sub-committees and have attempted to incorporate any views into the proposed calendar.

4. As part of the consultation process it is proposed that the Strategic ad Operational Policing Committee be held later each month in order to ensure that it can receive timely performance information each month.

C. Race and equality impact

In drafting the calendar, consideration has been given to possible religious holidays and observances.
