FOI 16032024-1 – Police Fire & Crime Commissioner Loss of Office Payments
Request
In light of his departure, did the commissioner get offered any kind of severance pay / special severance pay / redundancy pay / winding up / etc pay (or similar) to leave his role?
If yes, how much does this amount to?
Response
I can confirm that the Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Northamptonshire will not receive any payment for loss of office following his announcement that he is to stand down from the role. Whilst the Senior Salaries Review Body did recommend the introduction of a loss of office payment for PCCs who lose their seat at an election, comparable to those available to MP, this was rejected by the Government.
