"Five years ago, policing committed to improving outcomes for Black communities. That commitment has not been met. Progress has been slow, uneven and too dependent on individual effort rather than institutional change."
"Internal police culture is the most significant barrier to progress. An external framework is incapable of overcoming a culture that does not want to change."

The report, monitored by the Independent Scrutiny and Oversight Board, highlighted a lack of clear national leadership and substantial resistance from police heads. The National Black Police Association labeled the efforts a significant failure. The report emphasized that internal police culture is a major barrier to progress, and without enforced legal obligations and a robust inspection framework, meaningful reform will remain elusive.
