MHK wants update on independent police complaints process

Friday, 22 March 2024 at 10:25

Questions about whether the government is introducing an independent police complaints process will be raised in the House of Keys next week.

When MHKs sit on Tuesday, South Douglas MHK Claire Christian will quiz Justice and home Affairs Minister Jane Poole-Wilson about an inspection of the Island's police in 2021.

Mrs Christian wants to know what progress has been made in bringing in recommendations from His Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire and Rescue Services.

Its report, sent to police in 2022, said an independent police complaints investigation process should be in place by October 2023.
