Code of Practice on the Management of Police Pursuits

In 2009, the Home Secretary commissioned the NPIA to produce a Code of Practice on the Management of Police Pursuits. This followed a recommendation made by the IPCC in its 2007 report, 'Police Road Traffic Incidents, A Study of Cases Involving Serious and Fatal Injuries', which recommended that a code of practice on the management of police pursuits would improve consistency and practice across police forces.

The draft code underpins more detailed ACPO Guidance on the Management of Police Pursuits, available from ACPO website  which should be considered alongside the draft code.

The draft code and accompanying letter can be accessed from the links below. The consultation period on the draft code will run until 20 June 2010 and your feedback should be submitted to feedback.pursuits@npia.pnn.police.uk
