Recommendation 95

95 Paragraph: 616

Home Office withdrawal fragmented policing's race equality efforts, lacking leadership and accountability.

Conclusion
Furthermore the withdrawal of the Home Office from an active role in policing has been responsible for fragmentation and a lack of wholesale ownership in addressing race equality issues. While we acknowledge the devolved nature of policing, the Home Office is ultimately responsible for providing leadership and accountability in this area and for ensuring that progress is made in practice. The time for the Home Office to embrace that role is long overdue.
