Nottinghamshire Police: PEEL causes of concern revisit letter

In January 2024, we inspected Nottinghamshire Police as part of our PEEL programme. During our inspection, we identified three causes of concern, two of which were issued in March 2024 as accelerated causes of concern. In July 2024, we published our PEEL 2023–25 inspection report of Nottinghamshire Police, in which we issued the third cause of concern.

The causes of concern were that the force:

• needed to improve how it manages, supervises and carries out effective investigations, and make sure that victims get the support they need;
• did not have adequate processes, planning or governance arrangements in place to monitor performance effectively or identify areas where improvement is required; and
• needed to make sure that neighbourhood police officers and police community support officers aren’t diverted away from their main duties to deal with other areas of demand.

In January and February 2025, we revisited the force to review its progress against the causes of concern. This has resulted in the closure of the causes of concern related to monitoring performance and neighbourhood policing.

This letter provides an update on our findings.
