14/01/2021

The APCC welcomes the appointment of Nick Herbert, Lord Herbert of South Downs, as Chair of the College of Policing. Lord Herbert is well known to PCCs both as a former Minister of State for Police and Criminal Justice and perhaps even more so as one of the architects of the role of Police and Crime Commissioner.

APCC Chair Paddy Tipping, said: “The College of Policing has a key role to play in the policing landscape and it’s good to see someone of the calibre of Lord Herbert appointed as Chair. I’ve worked closely with him on a number of occasions over many years and can’t think of a better appointment.

"We note that Lord Herbert has announced his intention to launch a fundamental review of the College. We look forward to contributing to that review and further strengthening the important role of the College in standard setting and leadership development for the police service.”
