Kit Malthouse was elected to the London Assembly on 1 May 2008, representing the West Central Constituency, and was appointed Deputy Mayor for Policing by Boris Johnson.

As vice chair, Kit effectively discharges most of the day to day responsibilities of the chair of the Authority. He is the author of the MPA’s strategic programme for determining the priorities of the MPS, Met Forward.
