The Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) holds monthly scrutiny meetings.
These meetings are part of the PCC’s responsibility to hold the Chief Constable to account for delivering efficient and effective policing in Cleveland.
The PCC’s scrutiny meetings fall into the following two categories:
- PCC Scrutiny Meeting
- PCC and Chief Constable weekly meetings
Terms of Reference
PCC Scrutiny, Delivery and Performance Meetings
The PCC has a statutory duty and a mandate at election to hold the police to account on behalf of the public.
Therefore, duties include the following:
- Scrutinising, supporting and challenging the performance of the Force;
- Holding the Chief Constable to account for the performance of officers and staff;
- Making sure the Chief Constable carries out his duties – and those of staff under his direction and control – properly; and
- Maintaining an efficient and effective police force.
The Commissioner monitors the force’s progress against Cleveland Police’s Towards 2025 programme.
It was launched following an inspection by Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire and Rescue Services (HMICFRS.) The inspection found Cleveland Police to be inadequate in all areas.
