| Why do we have a Commissioner? |
|---|
Proposed changes to the Police governance structure became a reality in September 2011 after the Coalition Government passed the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act . This means that from November 2012, Police Authorities ceased to exist and have been replaced with directly-elected Police and Crime Commissioners.

| Monitoring and Inspecting Policy |
|---|
Police and Crime Commissioners are not the only ones who monitor police performance and inspect the quality of work delivered.
Her Majesty's Inspectors of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Service (HMICFRS) independently assesses police forces and policing activity from neighbourhood teams to serious crime and the fight against terrorism - in the public interest.
