Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, when she plans to conclude her consideration of the Independent Police Complaints Commission's draft statutory guidance on best evidence in cases involving death and serious injury.

The Government is considering the IPCC’s revised draft statutory guidance on best evidence in death and serious injury matters in light of recent incidents and ongoing work by the College of Policing to produce new post incident guidelines for death and serious injury cases. We will reach a decision in due course.
