There's been some criticism after it was announced that Devon and Cornwall's Police and Crime Commissioner won't be standing for re-election.
Tony Hogg is stepping down from the role after 32 months but will stay in the job until elections next May.
The regional chairman of the Police Federation, that represents rank and file officers, has given his reaction to the news.
Nigel Rabbitts has been critical of Mr Hogg in the past, and thinks his departure leaves some unanswered questions.
