About Kent Police and Crime Commissioner

The Kent Police and Crime Commissioner is an elected official tasked with setting out the way crime is tackled by Kent Police in the English County of Kent. The post was created following an election held on 15 November 2012, and replaced the Kent Police Authority. The current incumbent is Matthew Scott, who represents the Conservative Party. The Office of the Kent Police and Crime Commissioner currently has 25 employees. In 2014, under inaugural Commissioner Ann Barnes, the Office was featured in a Channel 4 documentary, in which Barnes is said to have brought Kent Police into disrepute due to her perceived incompetence.
