This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition Audio and/or Video recording of police in action
More details
The privilege and responsibility to enforce laws brings with it enormous potential for corruption. Police brutality and corruption are very destructive to a community. We now live in a world where the complete documentation of all actions taken by on-duty police officers is possible. While many officers record most of their interactions with the public, there are still many incidents that are undocumented and that result in a "he-said-she-said" legal situation. In addition to recording all interactions with the public, police forces must also readily and without resistance provide recordings upon request. These steps will help to re-establish trust in our police agencies.
