OUR COOPERATING PARTNERS
The City of London Police is the territorial police force responsible for law enforcement within the City
of London, including the Middle and Inner temples. The City of London area has a resident population of
around 7,700. However, there is also a daily influx of approximately 400,000 commuters into the City,
along with thousands of tourists.
The police authority is the Common Council of the City, and unlike other territorial forces in England and
Wales there is not a police and crime commissioner replacing that police authority by way of the Police
Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011, but like a police and crime commissioner, the Common
Council is elected.
The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS), formerly and still commonly known as the Metropolitan
Police and informally as the Met, Scotland Yard or "the Yard", is the territorial police force responsible
for local law enforcement in the Metropolitan Police District, which currently consists of the 32 London
boroughs. The Met also has significant national responsibilities, such as coordinating and leading on UK-
wide national counter-terrorism matters and protecting the Royal Family, certain members of Her
Majesty's Government and others as deemed appropriate
