The Department is not aware of any occasions where local authorities have failed to nominate and appoint local authority members to the relevant Police and Crime Panel since the commencement of the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011.<\/p>

In November 2012 the Home Office published guidance on the process for nominating and appointing members to a panel, as an accompaniment to the Police and Crime Panels (Nominations, Appointments and Notifications) Regulations 2012. It can be found on GOV.UK at the following link: Police_and_Crime_Panel_Regulations.pdf (publishing.service.gov.uk)<\/a>.<\/p>

The local authorities within a given force area are required by legislation to make panel arrangements, which must include provisions about resignation, and removal, of appointed members and co-opted members of the panel. Any decision to remove a local authority member from a panel would therefore be determined locally. There are no plans to issue any new guidance to panels on their legal duties, which are set out in both Regulations and existing guidance.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4503", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Chris Philp"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Croydon South"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Chris Philp"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2023-01-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : [{"_value" : "122443"} , {"_value" : "122513"} ], "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2023-01-19T10:54:23.983Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2023-01-13", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Police and Crime Panels: Public Appointments"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether her Department has provided guidance on how local authority representatives can be removed from a Police and Crime panel under the Police and Crime Panels (Nominations, Appointments and Notifications) Regulations 2012.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4006", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dr Matthew Offord"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hendon"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Dr Matthew Offord"} ], "uin" : "122444"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/821526", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/821526/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Government continues to believe that investment pools of at least £25 billion are required to deliver the full potential for reduced costs in the local government pension scheme. However, the Government has accepted that the Welsh pool, established by, and for the Welsh pension funds, is in a special position, taking account of the possibility of eventual devolution.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4483", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Rishi Sunak"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Richmond (Yorks)"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Rishi Sunak"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-01-17", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-01-17T16:55:06.55Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "7"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Housing, Communities and Local Government"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Housing, Communities and Local Government"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-01-12", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Local Government Pension Scheme"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government for what reasons the scale criteria of £25 billion for pooling local government pension scheme assets has been dropped; and what evidence was used to inform the lowering of that threshold.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4397", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Peter Dowd"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Bootle"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Peter Dowd"} ], "uin" : "122444"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 2, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
