The West Midlands Police and Crime Commissioner is the police and crime commissioner of the West Midlands Police.
The PCC's official office is in Lloyd House, the West Midlands Police's headquarters, in Birmingham.[2]
The PCC role was set to be abolished with effect from 7 May 2024, with its functions transferred to the Mayor of the West Midlands.[3] However, PCC Simon Foster won a High Court judicial review of the decision, with Mr. Justice Swift saying "The home secretary did not, when consulting, provide sufficient information to permit an intelligent and informed response." A government spokesperson said permission to appeal would be sought. Foster said he expected an election would take place in May.[4] The appeal was dismissed and the election was held on 2 May 2024.[5]
