The Met Has Become The First Uk Police Service To Launch A New Vetting Initiative As Part Of Its Ongoing Efforts To Remove Police Officers Or Staff Who Corrupt The Organisation's Integrity

While there are tens of thousands of men and women at the Met, the majority of whom are hard-working, honest and dedicated public servants upholding the highest levels of integrity, the new Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley has spoken about the fact that there are hundreds who need to be rooted out for corrupting the organisation’s integrity.

As part of the Met’s work to rebuild trust and confidence with Londoners, the Met is leading the way for policing nationally in instigating re-vetting procedures where concerns are raised, following recommendations from His Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services (HMICFRS) and College of Policing (CoP).
