Vaughan Gething MS for Cardiff South and Penarth and Minister for Health
“Alun’s record speaks for itself on equality and diversity. As our Police and Crime Commissioner he has accelerated the recruitment of police officers and staff from our BAME communities, to ensure the South Wales Police force represents the communities they serve. I’m proud to support Alun to continue as our Labour and Cooperative Police and Crime Commissioner for South Wales.“
Stephen Doughty MP for Cardiff South and Penarth
“Alun’s work as our Police and Crime Commissioner has been fantastic. Despite Tory austerity and cuts to the police grant, Alun has managed to work closely with Welsh Government to increase the number of PSCOs across the region. That’s why I’m backing Alun to be re-elected as our Labour and Cooperative Police and Crime Commissioner for South Wales.”
