Ban serving or former police officers from working on/advising the OPCC

Introduce a public misconduct register for police accountability & transparency

Remove Regulation 4(8) of the Police (Conduct) Regulations 2020
Amend the Police (Conduct) Regulations 2020 so that misconduct proceedings can be brought against any former police officer, regardless of when they left the service. We believe the current cut-off date of 15 December 2017 unfairly prevents accountability for past abuse and corruption.
