Question to the Home Office:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what progress has been made in the review of the publication of Taser data and other use of force by police officers.

It is vital that we do all we can to ensure the police use of Taser and other use of force are appropriate and proportionate, and for its use to be transparent to the public. That is why the Home Secretary asked the national policing lead Chief Constable David Shaw to work with the Home Office on an in-depth review of the publication of Taser data and other use of force by police officers. CC David Shaw is due to update the Home Secretary shortly on the emerging findings of the review.
