The Lincolnshire Police and Crime Panel scrutinises the actions and decisions of the Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) for Lincolnshire. It reviews the PCC's draft Police and Crime Plan, annual report, and proposed precept (the portion of Council Tax allocated to policing). The Panel has the power to veto the PCC's proposed precept. It also holds confirmation hearings for the appointment of the Chief Constable and senior police staff. The Panel's role is to ensure the PCC is accountable to the public for the performance of Lincolnshire Police.
