Doncaster chief brands police commissioners ‘a complete waste of space’

Jo Miller, the chief executive of Doncaster MBC, spoke at an Institute for Government event in London on Tuesday which addressed whether greater decentralisation of powers to local government could improve accountability within local areas.

She is quoted in the article as saying, “Police and crime commissioners are a complete waste of space,” adding however that directly elected mayors, such as that of Doncaster, engaged the public well.
