About the Mayor\’s Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC)

One of the Mayor’s key responsibilities is overseeing the work of the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) – setting the priorities for policing and community safety in London, agreeing the policing budget, and holding the Met Commissioner to account for delivering a professional, efficient, and effective service to Londoners.

The Mayor has appointed Kaya Comer-Schwartz as Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime (DMPC) to oversee this vital work.

At the heart of our work is the Mayor’s Police and Crime Plan – a statutory document that sets out the key priorities for the upcoming term, how we will work to deliver them, and how we will oversee their implementation.

MOPAC is headed by the Mayor of London and is responsible for policing in the capital, outside the City of London.

Kaya Comer-Schwartz is London\’s Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime.
