We are proud to see our Chairman, Lord Bernard Hogan-Howe QPM, appointed by the Home Office to lead the Independent Review of Police Force Structures across England and Wales.

The review, set out in the landmark Police Reform White Paper (https://lnkd.in/ear827br), will make evidence-based recommendations on restructuring policing into a smaller number of larger forces. The aim is to ensure policing across the country has the capability, expertise and resilience required to respond to both complex crime and local priorities.

Lord Hogan-Howe QPM brings exceptional experience to the role, having served as Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, Chief Constable of Merseyside Police, and HM Inspector of Constabulary. Few people have seen policing from as many angles or at such senior levels.

The review will help shape how policing operates across England and Wales in the years ahead, from tackling serious organised crime and cybercrime to strengthening neighbourhood policing that addresses the issues communities face every day.

At iSanctuary, we are fortunate to work alongside leaders who have operated at the very highest levels of policing and public service. Their insight helps shape the way we support governments, organisations and law firms in tackling fraud, corruption, financial crime and complex investigations worldwide.

Congratulations to Lord Hogan-Howe QPM on this important appointment.
