Policing and Crime Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Walney (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 March 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Policing and Crime Bill.

I am sure my right hon. Friend welcomes the fact that the Independent Police Complaints Commission will be able to bring misconduct charges for officers who have retired. Does it seem strange, however, that the only penalty that seems to have been proposed for a retired officer who is found guilty of misconduct is to say to them, “You can’t come back and work in the police force”? That is no penalty at all if they have already retired.
