The Standard 5/9/2022 News Police and Crime Commissioner for Devon and Cornwall, Alison Hernandez’s weekly column – ‘a Chief Constable chosen by me with the help of the communities I serve’ More than a decade ago the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act abolished police authorities in favour of democratically elected Police and Crime Commissioners.

One who could reach out to our communities and our partners for help and support to achieve clear goals to tackle crime and the exploitation of the most vulnerable in our society.
