Members Of The Police Authority
The Devon and Cornwall Police Authority has 19 Members - 10 Councillors and 9 Independents (one of whom must be a Lay Justice). All Members are appointed to the Police Authority for a fixed term and the membership can change during the year.
Councillor Members
The Councillor members are nominated from:
- Devon County Council,
- Cornwall County Council,
- Plymouth City Council,
- Torbay Council and
- Council for the Isles of Scilly.
A joint Committee representing all of these Councils determines the political composition of the appointments to reflect the overall political balance across the Councils’ membership.
Independent Members
Police Authorities want their Independent Members to represent as wide a range of people as possible and anyone over 18 years of age who either lives or works in Devon, Cornwall or the Isles of Scilly can apply to be an Independent Member (subject to certain legal requirements). Independent Members are appointed after responding to an advert, completing an application form and going through a rigorous selection process. Their term of office is 4 years but they can re-apply to serve for a further 4 year period.
