Question
to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what obligations each police constabulary has to collect data on (a) the number of complaints received in its force area and (b) the type of complaints.
Answered by Kit Malthouse
The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) determines the information that police forces are required to collect on police complaints. The data is published by the IOPC on its website and through an annual Police Complaints Statistics report.
https://www.policeconduct.gov.uk/sites/default/files/Documents/statistics/complaints_statistics_2017_18.pdf.
The data includes the number of complaints received by each force, the types of complaint and the time taken to deal with them.
The Government has developed a comprehensive package of reforms to the police complaints system to increase transparency and the timeliness with which complaints are handled. These reforms are set out in the Policing and Crime Act 2017 and will be implemented early next year, Parliamentary time permitting.
