Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill

I do not know, and that is one of the flaws in the Bill that we will need to investigate in Committee. As I understand it, that problem was why the Liberal Democrats did not support the policy. They rejected it in their policy documents in the past two years, stating that"““police authorities must be representative of the whole community, including women and ethnic minorities, which is why we reject…plans for elected sheriffs.””" That was why they rejected the policy in the first place.
