*BORIS ADMITS THAT CRIME ON THE UNDERGROUND DROPPED IN THE LAST YEAR.

Question by Green Party Assembly Member, Jenny Jones at last week's Mayor's Question Time:

Transport crime
Question No: 1023 / 2008
Jenny Jones
How many crimes were recorded on the London Underground in 2004/05 and in 2007/08?

MAYOR: In 2004/05, the total number of recorded crimes on the London Underground and DLR was 18,399. In 2007/08 this had reduced to 16,445; However, there are significant concerns regarding anti social behaviour on the tube. I have already introduced the alcohol ban on the Underground as one measure to address this.
