Recommendation 59

59 Paragraph: 155

Policing mission creep requires urgent cross-Government action to address its scope.

Conclusion
Policing faces challenges in delivering its core mission. Simultaneously it has become “the service of last resort for people in crisis.” We agree with the National Police Chiefs’ Council and College of Policing that tackling this mission creep “requires cross-Government working.”
