MOPAC sets the direction and budget for the Metropolitan Police Service on behalf of the Mayor.
Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC)
We work to make London a safe city for all.
Our vision at the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC) is to make London a safe city for all.
The Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011 established a Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) for each police force area across England and Wales. In London, the elected Mayor – Sadiq Khan - is the occupant of the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC).
Our priorities are:
In all its forms, such as knife crime, gang violence, violence against women and girls and terrorism.
Making sure that all Londoners feel that the police treat you fairly, provide a professional service and are dealing with the local crime and antisocial behaviour issues that matter to you.
Providing the services victims of crime need to cope and recover from their experiences; and supporting more people to pursue cases through the justice system all the way to trial.
Reducing the number of young people and adults who are exploited or harmed; keeping young people in the justice system supported and safe; and ensuring that Londoners are protected in public, in private and online.
We also determine how best to distribute budgets and we are responsible for delivering the Mayor’s Police and Crime Plan for London.
Below you can find more information on who we are, our plans and strategies, how we deliver our work, and how we measure our progress along the way.
