Police chiefs have said a mass screening of more than 300,000 UK police officers, staff and volunteers has led to nine criminal investigations.
The figures are lower than expected. For instance the Metropolitan police said last year it was re-examining 1,131 past allegations against officers or staff merely in the category of alleged wrongdoing against women. In 2022, a report by the policing inspectorate lambasted vetting in law enforcement and warned of concerns about hundreds if not low thousands of officers.
