Decisions about the recruitment and retention of police officers and staff are the responsibility of chief constables and police and crime commissioners, supported by the College of Policing.<\/p>

In its Effectiveness report, published on 2 March 2017, Her Majesty\u2019s Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMIC) called on the National Police Chiefs\u2019 Council, working with the College of Policing, to review by June what is being done to tackle concerns over the number of police detectives. HMIC recommended that these bodies should put in place a national action plan by December 2017. HMIC\u2019s recommendations are primarily for police leaders to take action and ensure progress is made.<\/p>
