Summary
"In May 2017, Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services (HMICFRS) conducted a crime data integrity inspection of Leicestershire Police. We published the report of this inspection in September 2017 and concluded that the force’s crime-recording arrangements were not acceptable. As a result, we gave Leicestershire Police an overall judgment of inadequate. Of the 30 forces reported upon in this programme of inspections to date, the crime-recording standards found in Leicestershire Police in 2017 were the worst. Our 2017 report gave numerous recommendations and areas for improvement aimed at improving crime recording in Leicestershire Police. This re-inspection, completed in October 2018, assessed the progress made since that report."--Page 1.
