The Independent Ethics Committee - Cleveland Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner
The Cleveland Police Ethics Committee exists to promote the highest standards of ethical conduct within Cleveland Police.
The Independent Ethics Committee aims to promote the highest standards of ethical conduct in Cleveland Police.
The committee acts as a ‘critical friend’ to the force. Members provide a focus for education, a source of support and a measure of compliance with organisational values.
The Committee makes sure senior leaders are aligned with force values and the Code of Ethics by scrutinising, challenging and advising in areas such as:
- Leadership;
- Police culture;
- Complex operational decision making;
- Themes of national significance;
- Strategic influence, and
- Development and management of resources and estate
As a result, members believe the Independent Ethics Committee makes a key contribution to maintaining and improving trust and confidence in Cleveland Police.
In simple terms, professional ethics are not only about doing the right thing but doing things for the right reason.
The committee’s skills and experience assist in senior leaders’ decision making. They also improve the transparency of those decisions for the benefit of the communities, which Cleveland Police and PCC serve.
