He will take office on Thursday, May 12.

The outgoing Police and Crime Commissioner for Lincolnshire, Alan Hardwick, said: “I want to warmly congratulate Marc. It’s a big job and I wish the new commissioner the very best for the future.

Lincolnshire Police is a force that, nationally and locally, punches well above its weight. I have no doubt that, with a strong and determined PCC to continue the campaign for fairer funding, the county will continue to be a safe place in which to live and work.”
