More than a third of people in England and Wales have no idea if there is a police and crime commissioner, or PCC, in their area.

That's according to a 麻豆社 poll, published today on the first anniversary of last year's PCC elections.

The survey also suggests that 35 per cent of people don't know if they have a PCC in their area, while three per cent think, incorrectly, that they do not.

The PCC's role is to oversee Chief Constables and Forces' budgets.

Last year's election saw an average turnout of just 14.9%.

Here in Leicestershire and Rutland it was slightly higher, with a turnout of 16 per cent.

The Conservative candidate, Sir Clive Loader, won on a count of "second preference" votes...and launched himself into the unknown.....and undefined!
