Public Delivery Plan 2023/24

Introductions

Simon Dennis – Chief Executive and Monitoring Officer

“My role as Chief Executive, is to be Commissioner Zoë’s most senior advisor, and to ensure that the Commissioner’s Office enables her to carry out her role effectively by having the right staff, systems, processes, policies, delivery plan and culture needed to drive excellence in Police and Fire services and to deliver positive outcomes for victims and the most vulnerable. We are proud to do so with transparency. Ultimately, it’s my job to ensure that the organisation makes a positive difference for the public, every day”.

Zoë Metcalfe – Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner

“To be effective as a Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner, I need to be supported by an organisation that works well and can deliver tangible results for the people of York and North Yorkshire. I look to my Chief Executive to ensure that our Office positions me to fulfil my statutory duties. Together, we hold Chief Officers to account for the delivery of effective services, ensure that what matters to the public is reflected in local policing and fire plans, and commission services to support those impacted by crime”.

What is the Office of the Police, Fire & Crime Commissioner

The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner (PFCC) is supported by a team of staff employed by the Office of the Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner (OPFCC). The person in charge of that team, is the Chief Executive.

Whilst the PFCC is a politician who is elected by the public, the OPFCC is a non-political, impartial organisation.

Like the Civil Service supports Ministers in Central Government to deliver their policies and the commitments they make to the public when they are elected, the OPFCC does likewise for the elected Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner – and does so with the same expectations of political neutrality.

One of the main roles of the OPFCC is to make sure that the PFCC exercises their powers properly and responsibly which it does through scrutiny. The OPFCC’s scrutiny work is done openly, and the public can access and take part in it. This helps the people of York and North Yorkshire to make their own informed opinions about whether they trust, and are confident in, the organisations which exist to protect them from harm and respond to them in an emergency.

The work of the OPFCC generally fits into 8 categories:

1. Engaging with the public and making information available to them.
2. Scrutinising North Yorkshire Police (NYP) and North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service (NYFRS) to enable the PFCC to hold Chief Officers to account.
3. Dealing with complaints and using learning from complaints and compliments, to improve services.
4. Making excellent support services available for people who have experienced or (in some cases) committed crime and to address the root causes of offending.
5. Giving grants to community groups to help fund initiatives supporting local people to feel safe.
6. Working with other organisations, such as Government, national agencies, local authorities, and the criminal justice system, to deliver positive outcomes for North Yorkshire.
7. Making sure the PFCC’s finances, estate and all their assets are operating properly.
8. Working at a national level to lobby for changes which benefit the public, including the communities of North Yorkshire.

The Commissioner, the Office, the Chiefs and the Panel

Often there is confusion about the difference between the roles of the PFCC, the OPFCC, the Chief Officers (the Chief Constable and Chief Fire Officer) and the Police, Fire and Crime Panel.

This can lead to frustration, particularly if the public expect something that is not within a specific person or organisation’s role to deliver.

To help make this clearer, the roles of the PFCC, the Chief Officers and the Police, Fire and Crime Panel and the OPFCC can be summarised as:

Chief Constable and Chief Fire Officer

• Is the most senior police officer / fire and rescue officer. The Chief Constable’s employer is the King. The Chief Fire Officer (and Deputy Chief Fire Officer) employer is the PFCC.
• Must deliver an effective police force and fire and rescue service.
• The Chief Constable and Chief Fire Officer have direct control over all their operational services, officers, firefighters, staff and volunteers.
• Tells the PFCC what they think of the Police and Crime Plan and Fire & Rescue Plan before they are approved – they then deliver their parts of what is written in those plans.
• Is responsible for the delivery of operational policing, fire and rescue services and how those services perform.
• The Chief Constable carries out a separate but vital range of legal powers, duties and best practice obligations of policing to victims of crime.
• Politically independent.
• Accountable to the PFCC.

Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner

• Decides who the Chief Constable and Chief Fire Officer should be and can dismiss them if necessary.
• Acts on behalf of the public to ensure that the Chief Constable and Chief Fire Officer are delivering effective services by holding them to account.
• The PFCC cannot attempt to directly control operational aspects of the police or fire and rescue service.
• Asks the people of North Yorkshire about what is most important to them about crime, policing and fire and rescue, and puts that information into the Police and Crime Plan and the Fire and Rescue Plan.
• Decides how much the public will have to pay as part of their council tax towards policing and fire and rescue services (this is called the precept).
• Ensure that all victims of crime have access to a broad range of support in line with their rights under the Code of Practice for Victims of Crime, to help them cope with and, as far as possible recover from the effects of crime. This is done through the provision or commissioning of dedicated emotional and practical support services (as defined in Article 2(1)(a) of the Victims Directive Annex 2), including bereaved family members.
• Elected into office.
• Accountable to the public via the ballot box.

Chief Executive and the OPFCC

• Ensures that the PFCC’s Strategic Plans for Policing, Fire and Crime are formulated and delivered. Ensures that the PFCC’s programme is delivered – and that outstanding support services are commissioned to support victims and the vulnerable. The Chief Executive is the Head of Paid Service for the OPFCC. Through the Chief Executive, the OPFCC has delegated powers to carry out many of the PFCC’s powers and duties. Helps organise the PFCC’s conversations with the public about their priorities – and then prepares the draft Police and Crime Plan, Fire & Rescue Plan and submits to the PFCC for approval.
• The OPFCC delivers a Strategic Commissioning Plan which ensures that we put in place outstanding support services for victims and address the root causes of offending.
• Is responsible for preparing the overall financial plans for policing, fire and crime – and overseeing the wise use of public money.
• Ensures that the PFCC carries into effect their duties to victims, by providing (in-house) or commissioning (via public, private and third sector organisations) and managing the services that are necessary to do so.
• Politically neutral.
• The Chief Executive is accountable to the PFCC. The OPFCC team are accountable to the Chief Executive.

Office structure

The OPFCC has a total of 39 posts which includes 2 Statutory Officers, 3 Directors and 10 Managers.
The OPFCC’s organisational workforce size is 0.7% when compared with the combined workforce costs for North Yorkshire Police (NYP) and North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service (NYFRS).

• The 2021/22 workforce budget for the police was £132.7 million.
• The 2021/22 workforce budget for the fire and rescue service was £25.5 million.
• The 2021/22 workforce budget for the OPFCC was £1.2 million.

The OPFCC is led by the Chief Executive who is also the Monitoring Officer, a role responsible for ensuring that the PFCC carries out their role lawfully and properly.

This means working closely with the Chief Fire Officer and Chief Constable and their senior teams, to make sure that decisions they take on the PFCC’s behalf are also of a high standard.

The OPFCC also has its own Chief Finance Officer, who has similar duties to ensure that public money is spent properly by the PFCC, the Police Force and the Fire & Rescue Service.

The OPFCC is structured into three functions. With a director responsible for each portfolio:

Public Confidence, which includes:

• Inclusivity & Public Confidence (working jointly with NYP and NYFRS to drive improvements in public trust and ensuring we are a diverse and inclusive family of organisations)
• Customer Service (our innovative police and fire complaints and recognition service)
• Communications & Engagement (ensuring that the Commissioner has strong links with the communities she serves and that the public have chance to understand and influence the improvement of their police and fire services)

Delivery & Assurance, which includes:

• Delivery & Assurance
  (scrutinising operational and corporate performance, making sure that the Commissioner’s strategic plans are delivered)
• Fire & Rescue Authority Management (ensuring the Commissioner’s governance responsibilities as Fire & Rescue Authority are discharged effectively)

• Commissioning and Partnership Management (ensuring that the services we commission to help those affected by crime, are of an exceptional standard)
• Offending & Justice (supporting the Commissioner to drive improvement in the criminal justice system and addressing offending and re-offending)
• The supporting Victims Team (our innovative, in-house team devoted to helping victims cope and recover from crime, whether or not they choose to report matters to the police)

Our Values

• Selflessness
  We act solely in the public interest.
• Integrity
  We avoid placing ourselves under any obligation to people or organisations that might try inappropriately to influence in our work. We do not act or take decisions in order to gain financial or other material benefits for ourselves, our families or our friends. We declare and resolve any interests and relationships.
• Objectivity
  We act and take decisions impartially, fairly and on merit, using the best evidence without discrimination or bias.
• Accountability
  We are accountable to the public for our decisions and actions and we submit ourselves to the scrutiny necessary to ensure this.
• Openness
  We act and take decisions in an open and transparent manner. Information should not be withheld from the public unless there are clear lawful reasons for so doing.
• Honesty
  We are truthful.
• Leadership
  We exhibit these values in our own behaviour. We actively promote and robustly support our Values and we are willing to challenge poor behaviour wherever it occurs.

This is what our team structure looks like:
