20 September 2023

The Authority oversaw a Police investigation into a complaint that an officer started a relationship with a woman after making contact with her in the course of his Police duties. The complainant reported the incident using the 105 number.

An investigation found that the 105 call taker had made a mistake when interpreting her notes of the call, and there was nothing to substantiate the allegation.

No further action was taken by Police.

The Authority agrees with the outcome of the investigation.
