A report into the effectiveness of vetting arrangements in Northumbria Police

Published on: 21 September 2023

Publication types: Effectiveness, Ethics and accountability, Integrity and corruption and PEEL

Police Forces: Northumbria

In May 2023, we inspected Northumbria Police to examine the effectiveness of the force’s vetting arrangements. You can read the report below.

Background

In September 2021, we changed the way we report on how effectively forces manage vetting and counter-corruption.

Previously, we inspected these areas as part of our police effectiveness, efficiency and legitimacy (PEEL) programme and provided our findings in the inspection report.

The new arrangements mean we will inspect each force separately to PEEL. We will continue to produce a report containing our findings and any areas for improvement or causes of concern.
