Mayor's Office for Policing And Crime (MOPAC)

The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, has important responsibilities for policing and safety in the capital, including overseeing the Metropolitan Police to make sure it provides an efficient and effective service for Londoners; investing in crime prevention activities; commissioning services to support victims of crime; and bringing together partners to tackle complex safety issues and their underlying causes. To help him deliver these responsibilities, the Mayor has appointed Kaya Comer-Schwartz as Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime (DMPC) to lead the team at the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC). MOPAC has a dedicated team of officials including specialists in commissioning, finance, oversight, policy, professional standards, research and analysis, community engagement and auditing. MOPAC also hosts the Mayor’s Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) and the office of London’s Independent Victims’ Commissioner, Claire Waxman OBE. Together, we are working to deliver the Mayor’s Police and Crime Plan and his vision for a city in which everyone is safe – and feels safe. Follow us for the latest updates on our work.
