Train all police officers and staff in racism awareness and cultural diversity
Recommendation
That all police officers, including CID and civilian staff, should be trained in racism awareness and valuing cultural diversity.
Published Evidence Summary
The following publicly available evidence relates to this recommendation:
No specific published evidence has been identified from the provided official sources confirming that all police officers, including CID and civilian staff, have been trained in racism awareness and valuing cultural diversity. General searches on GOV.UK for 'train police officers' yielded many results but none specifically confirm action on this Macpherson recommendation (gov.uk search results, 2026-03-24). The lack of specific, verifiable evidence suggests no public progress reporting since the inquiry in 1999.
