Résumé
"The Law Enforcement Review Agency (LERA) is an
independent, non-police agency, established under The
Law Enforcement Review Act in 1985. It investigates
public complaints about non-criminal police conduct.
This backgrounder provides an overview of what LERA
does, how it works and how it deals with cases that are
not within its mandate, such as criminal investigations,
police service investigations or police policies."--introduction.
