What does your Police and Crime Commissioner do for you?
The role of the PCCs is to be the voice of the people and hold the police to account.
They are responsible for the totality of policing.
PCCs aim to cut crime and deliver an effective and efficient police service within their force area.
Is commissioner higher than chief?
In some cities, the “commissioner” is the member of the board of officials in charge of the department, while a “chief” is the top uniformed officer answering to the commissioner or commission.
Can the mayor fire the police chief?
As the Commission found in Guardians, “the chief executive officer (mayor or city manager) or his designee is not only granted the power to appoint and dismiss the chief of police at will but sets the tone for the conduct of the entire force.”[3] Some mayors, police chiefs, and police commissioners are more involved.
