Laura and Mark will explore MHPS through relevant case examples, providing legal viewpoints and practical considerations for anyone who has an interest in, or wants to know more about MHPS.  In episode 1, Laura and Mark introduce series, starting off with an in-depth discussion about the contractual position of MHPS and why it is important to understand when a clause is contractual or not.

    The Police (Conduct) (Amendment) Regulations Podcast

    Welcome to Capsticks' latest podcast, where our legal team provide a summary of the new Police (Conduct)(Amendment) Regulations 2024, which implement the first tranche of legislative reforms to the police misconduct, vetting and performance systems that come into force on 7 May 2024. Exploring the new Regulations, along with observations about the legal and practical considerations for policing, Anna Semprini and Louise Ravenscroft discuss:  the primary amendment to the composition of misconduct panels, giving responsibility for chairing proceedings for non-senior officers to chief officers (removing Legally Qualified Chairs); the potential challenges of implementing the changes, which could impede the timeliness of proceedings rather than improve efficiency and fairness; the clarity still required in the shape of Home Office guidance, which has yet to be finalised or shared with all stakeholders; and what happens next – and how we can help. In the next instalment our legal team will be joined by Detective Chief Superintendent Michael Allen, Head of the Professional Standards Directorate at Greater Manchester Police, to review the challenges faced by forces adapting to the new Regulations, how they’ve been addressed by GMP, as well as looking ahead to Tranches 2 and 3, the first of which is expected in September 2024.
