LETTER: Police and Crime Commissioner role a waste of time and resources

I have today received my council tax bill for 2017/2018. I note that £205.47 from a total of £1,572.28 (13.07 per cent) is due to the Police and Crime Commissioner.

I never agreed to the creation of this position and feel it is a waste of time and resources. I would rather see that money added to the adult social care for which a real need exists.
