Terms of reference

His Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services will carry out an inspection of professional standards, vetting and counter-corruption arrangements in forces in England and Wales.

In our inspection, we will address the following questions.

  • How effectively does the force vet its officers and staff?
  • How effectively does the force promote high standards of behaviour in its workforce?
  • How effectively does the force identify, handle, and investigate potential breaches of the standards of professional behaviour?
  • Does the force hold police officers and staff accountable for their behaviour in a way that is proportionate, fair and consistent?
  • How effectively does the force protect the information it holds?
  • How effectively does the force tackle corruption (including potential corruption)?
