Hold a new Royal Commission on the Police and Criminal Justice System
The last Royal Commission on Criminal Justice took place in 1991 and was published in 1993. Since then, policing has faced some major internal challenges, such as underfunding and understaffing, all while adapting to combat the new, more complicated threats that the sector faces in the digital age.
We believe that the Police Service is underfunded, prioritised to focus on matters that were never within the remit of the Service when it was created as a civilian force, operating with the consent of the community it policed. Policing has moved so significantly away from public consent due to political and “popular” non-police trends that it no longer has public confidence. The Police Service and the Criminal Justice System are currently no longer fit for purpose and need a thorough overhaul.
