To support these aims, the Government, together with the National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC) and the Association of Police and Crime Commissioners (APCC), also published guidance for the police on working with vulnerable women.</p><p> </p><p>The NPCC shared the police guidance with chief officers, for dissemination within their forces and the APCC have circulated the guidance to all Police and Crime Commissioners. The MoJ will work with the APCC and NPCC to evaluate the impact of the guidance and consider any next steps.</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 11/07/2019 12:53:34 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar
