Written Question
Police: Recruitment
Monday 22nd July 2019

Asked by: Anne-Marie Trevelyan (Conservative - Berwick-upon-Tweed)

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the criteria are for exclusion on medical grounds for police recruitment.

Answered by Nick Hurd

Recruitment to the police is managed locally by forces. This is done within a national application, assessment and selection framework, in line with national guidance maintained by the College of Policing. Individual police forces in England and Wales are therefore responsible for deciding when and how they run their recruitment and selection processes.

Guidance on medical standards for applicants is provided by the College of Policing. College guidance uses Home Office circular 59 / 2004 National Recruitment Standards - Medical Standards for Police Recruitment: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-recruitment-standards-medical-standards-for-police-recruitment.
