Policing police performance

Article Abstract:

Chairman of the Police Complaints Authority (PCA) Sir Leonard Peach is also chairman of the Policy Studies Institute and was previously chief executive of the National Health Service management board, and personnel and corporate affairs director of IBM. He will not introduce performance-related pay but intends to increase performance management to improve the quality of service with faster action and by removing causes for complaint. In 1992 the PCA granted disciplinary dispensations for 6,000 complaints, an increase of 2,000.

Asian youth cynical about city policing

Article Abstract:

Asian youths in the UK believe that they are targeted by the police because of their colour. Similarly, Asian communities feel neglected by the police, who are accused of not taking reports of racial harassment seriously. Experiences in Bradford, England, where young Muslim men clashed violently with police in summer 1995, indicate that many police officers still use insulting language about Asians and often see Asian men as worthless drug addicts.

Legacy of Mersey's Militants

Article Abstract:

The return to court of Derek Hatton, the former deputy leader of Liverpool city council, has revived memories in the city of the period in the mid-1980s when the council was run by militants who opposed government cuts. Liverpool became the centre of municipal revolt for a time when the council refused to set a legal budget, and the city was plunged into chaos. Even now, the council is still bitterly split about spending issues.
