Met commissioner to step down on Sunday 10 April, with search for replacement expected to take months
Cressida Dick’s tenure as the Metropolitan police commissioner will come to a close at the end of next week, the Mayor of London’s office has said.
Dick will leave the post on Sunday 10 April, after her final day in the post she has held for five years was agreed by the Mayor’s Office for Police and Crime along with the terms of departure. The home secretary, Priti Patel, had announced earlier in the week that her tenure would end sometime in April.
