Policy

Policing

• From: Home Office
• Applies to: England and Wales

We are helping police tackle criminality, become more efficient and effective through enabling collaboration, providing greater workforce flexibility and freeing up police to do what they do best – fight crime and safeguard the vulnerable. Through establishing the College of Policing and National Crime Agency, strengthening Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary, and introducing locally elected Police and Crime Commissioners, policing is on a stronger footing to tackle new and emerging threats.
