Closed petition Require all police conduct complaints & appeals to be referred to the IOPC

The Government should amend the Police Reform Act 2002 to remove individual police forces’ right to investigate complaints and appeals against its own officers’ conduct. Such complaints and appeals should always be referred to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).

This would help to ensure that there is no perception of bias in how such complaints and appeals are handled.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.

We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
