Recommendation 21
21
Paragraph: 117
IOPC and police forces must strengthen efforts to minimise delays and ensure accountability.
Recommendation
The IOPC must use its powers effectively to minimise delays to investigations at an early stage of the process. It should proactively call to account those responsible for delays or who refuse to co-operate with investigations. Police forces, individual officers and their representative organisations must also take more responsibility for rooting out bad behaviour and lifting the cloud of complaint against officers who have done their exceptionally difficult job properly.
