David Jones – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by David Jones on 2016-02-11.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what plans she has to reform the police complaints process.

Mike Penning

Complaints made against the police must be responded to in a way that builds public confidence, and allows lessons to be learned.

The Policing and Crime Bill will reform the complaints system so that the handling of police complaints is customer focused and that cases are dealt with quickly and effectively, not just for the benefits of the public, but also for officers who have done nothing wrong.
