More than 1,100 police officers across England and Wales are under investigation for sexual or domestic abuse, prompting fresh calls for vetting and misconduct procedures to be radically overhauled.
Pronouncing the force guilty of institutional racism, misogyny and homophobia, the report included recommendations for revamping its vetting and misconduct procedures.
The party said it had been urging the home secretary, London mayor Sadiq Khan and the head of the Met to produce an urgent plan to implement the Casey report’s recommendations while encouraging other police forces to do the same.
Chamberlain is also demanding that Cleverly require police forces to regularly publish figures on how many officers under investigation for sexual or domestic abuse are still on normal duties.
A spokesperson for the Met said it was the first force in the UK to adopt a new process to consider dismissing officers who can no longer pass vetting “and who, as a result, have lost the Commissioner’s confidence”.
“If an officer or staff member can no longer meet the minimal vetting requirement, they will be unable to fulfil the duties expected as part of their role which may result in a finding of gross incompetence.
