Further information about these elections
On 15 November 2012, for the first time ever, elections
will be held to elect a Police and Crime Commissioner who will be
accountable for how crime is tackled in their police force
areas.
To provide stronger and more transparent accountability
of the police, the Police and Crime Commissioner will be elected by
the public to hold Chief Constables and their forces to account,
effectively making the police answerable to the communities they
serve.
The elected Police and Crime Commissioner will also be
responsible for setting the police force's strategic priorities,
cutting crime, appointing and, if necessary, dismissing the Chief
Constable and ensuring that policing is efficient and
effective.
Further information about the running of these elections
in the Barrow Borough Council area will follow on this
page.
