Recommendation 1

1 Paragraph: 6

Public perceives police misconduct complaints as over-complex, lengthy, and unlikely to result in significant action.

Conclusion
It is an inevitable part of any complaints system that those whose complaints are not upheld will be discontented. There is none the less a perception that complaints against police officers are unlikely to succeed and that investigations are over- complex, take too long and frequently result in limited action against even officers found to have committed misconduct.
