<p>It is the role of the College of Policing to set the standards for training and
professional development for police forces in England and Wales. The College has recently
published Authorised Professional Practice on mental health. This guidance will support
all police officers, including custody staff, in responding effectively to people
suffering with mental health issues. It is the responsibility of Chief Constables
and Police and Crime Commissioners, to ensure officers and police staff receive appropriate
training and that they have regard to this Authorised Professional Practice when discharging
their responsibilities.</p>
