Question to the Home Office:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what steps they are taking to review the use of Tasers by police officers and in particular their use against children and young people.
The Home Secretary announced in October 2014 an in-depth review of the publication of Taser data and other use of force by police officers, to ensure these powers are being used appropriately and in a transparent way. The review will present options for publishing data on how Taser is being used, who it is being used on and what the outcomes are.
