The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) is an organisation that has overall responsibility for the system of complaints made against the police in cases of misconduct. Click here to access the IPCC website.
If, as a victim of crime, you feel that we have not delivered on our obligations under the code described above, you should ask for a leaflet explaining how to make a complaint. You will receive a response within 10 working days. If you make a complaint regarding a breach of the code but are not satisfied with the outcome, you may refer the issue, through a Member of Parliament, to the Parliamentary Ombudsman for consideration. Information about taking a complaint to the Parliamentary Ombudsman can be found at http://www.ombudsman.org.uk/.
