Recommendation 86
86
Paragraph: 219
Lengthy redaction processes and investigations are inefficient and require urgent digital solutions.
Conclusion
Lengthy and inefficient redaction processes and protracted investigations are neither effective nor fair on either victims or suspects. The handling of case files needs to comply with data protection laws. However, ensuring that the requirements are proportionate and that forces have the digital capacity to meet such requirements efficiently is an urgent issue that needs addressing. More needs to be done to pilot solutions and get the balance right.
