Mayors: Police
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether combined authority mayors will be subject to Independent Office for Police Conduct standards.
Answered by Dame Diana Johnson
Combined Authority Mayors who exercise the functions of a Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) are subject to the same complaints and conduct system as PCCs.
Where a complaint or allegation of misconduct is made, it must be referred to the IOPC where there is an indication that a criminal offence has been committed.
