PSNI investigation file review processes
Recommendation
PSNI needs to improve its processes for the review of live investigation files, and have an effective escalation process when progress is delayed. PSNI should consider how it assures the quality of the reviews of live investigation files. Senior officers should assess a significant sample of reviews to ensure all possible action has been taken to conclude the investigation and that delays are escalated promptly.
