question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government what action they intend to take in the light of the findings of Her Majesty's Chief Inspectorate of Constabulary's recent <i>PEEL: Police legitimacy 2015</i> report, and the comments by HM's Inspector of Constabulary that "far too many forces were not complying with the Home Office and College of Policing Best Use of Stop and Search scheme, despite all chief constables having signed up to [it]".

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/03/2016 answer text <p>HM Inspector of Constabulary’s (HMIC’s) findings on stop and search powers, particularly compliance with the Best Use of Stop and Search Scheme, as published in their National Legitimacy Report, are concerning. The voluntary Scheme was launched fully in December 2014 and all 43 forces, as well as the British Transport Police, signed up to it to demonstrate that their force is using stop and search powers fairly, effectively and in a way that builds community confidence. HMIC found 13 forces non-compliant in three or more components of the Scheme, and a further 19 were found to be non-compliant with at least one. This represents an unacceptable breach of the Scheme’s terms and, accordingly, membership of the 13 forces was immediately suspended on 10 February; the remaining 19 forces not fully compliant have been put on notice.</p><p>HMIC will inspect forces suspended from the Scheme to assess progress with compliance over the next 6 months. Forces are also required to set out details on how full compliance with the Scheme’s requirements will be achieved as part of the Police and Crime Commissioner’s duty to respond to HMIC reports, as set out in section 55 of the Police Act 1996. This information, as well as the findings from HMIC’s follow-up visits to determine the progress made, will inform the decision in the summer on whether to lift the suspension from the Scheme or remove forces altogether.</p> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 09/03/2016 14:10:38 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/10/2014 answer text <p>This Government has taken firm and far reaching action to reform the use of stop and search powers. In April, the Government announced reforms to the police’s use of stop and search to ensure that this measure is used fairly, effectively and with the support of local communities. When stop and search is misused, it is a waste of police time and undermines police and community relations, making the job of policing more difficult. The voluntary Best Use of Stop and Search Scheme, and other measures announced, are designed to reduce the number of stop and searches and promote the proper and effective use of this power. In addition, we are working to explore the possibility of quick and efficient stop and search data recording through the Emergency Services Mobile Communications Network, which will replace the national Airwave system from 2017. <br><br>This is in addition to action the Government took in 2011 to scrap bureaucratic recording of all stop and accounts and to reduce the number of items recorded from 12 to 7.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 15/10/2014 15:03:43 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning
