MPA only

The Metropolitan Police Authority (MPA) exists to make sure that London’s police are accountable for the services they provide to people in the capital.

The MPA has 23 members who scrutinise and support the work of the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS). The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, became chairman of the Authority on 1 October 2008.

The Authority has achieved real benefits for the people of London. There are now record numbers of Metropolitan Police Service officers and staff. Over 31,000 police officers, the highest number ever, now work to keep the capital safe, and London was first to introduce Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) - over 4,000 now provide extra public reassurance and tackle anti-social behaviour that affects our communities.
The MPA promotes equality and diversity within the police service and is working in partnership to ensure all those who live and work in the capital are treated fairly and with respect.
