National Police Chiefs' Council
The National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) is an organization established on 1 April 2015 representing British police chiefs and acting as a national co-ordinating body for some police activities. It replaces the former Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO), following the Parker Review of the operations of ACPO which recommended its replacement.[1][2]
The NPCC is not a legal entity in its own right,[3] but a collaboration between British police forces, who collectively run and fund it under the terms of Section 22A of the Police Act 1996.[3][4] It is hosted by the Metropolitan Police Service.
As of 2015[update], it is headed by Sara Thornton QPM, the former Chief Constable of the Thames Valley Police.[5]
