Police and Crime Commissioners
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government whether they have prepared an impact assessment of the decision to abolish Police and Crime Commissioners; and if so, whether they will place a copy in the Library of the House.
- Answer
-
The announcement of the Government’s intention to abolish the Police and Crime Commissioner model is the first of a series of reforms that will be set out in the forthcoming Police Reform White Paper, to drive quality, consistency and efficiency in policing and ensure it is set up to deliver for the public.
We will bring forward legislation to give effect to the reforms in the White Paper, including legislating for alternative police governance arrangements, when parliamentary time allows. An impact assessment will be published alongside this legislation.
