Ian Johnston (police officer)

Ian Johnston CBE, QPM is the Chief Constable of the British Transport Police. He became Chief Constable on 1 May 2001 when he succeeded David Williams, who had served as Chief Constable for three and a half years. He joined the Metropolitan Police in 1965 and served as Staff Officer to former Metropolitan Police Commissioner, Peter Imbert.

He moved to Kent Constabulary in 1989, where he served as Assistant Chief Constable in charge of first Administration and Supply, and then Operations, before moving back to the Metropolitan Police in 1992 as a Deputy Assistant Commissioner.

In 1994 he was appointed Assistant Commissioner for the South East London area, but in 1999 moved to Assistant Commissioner with responsibility for Territorial Policing in 2000.

In the 1995 New Years Honours list he was awarded the Queen's Police Medal and in the 2001 Queen's Birthday Honours list the CBE.

Johnston was mooted as being the next Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police after the retirement of Sir John Stevens. However, that role was to be given to Sir Ian Blair.

Ian Johnston holds the chair [since April 2005] of the Association of Chief Police Officers [ACPO] Crime Business Area.
