Modernising Police Powers: Review of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act (PACE) 1984
The Home Office aims to re-focus police investigation and evidence-gathering processes on serving the needs of victims and witnesses, and helping raise the efficiency and effectiveness of the police service.
A review of the PACE Act 1984, which governs police powers and procedures, is part of that work.
The review will build on the extensive work carried out since the joint Home Office and Cabinet Office Review of PACE in 2002, and will scope the potential for further rationalisation of police powers.
This consultation suggests how the review can be taken forward. Your views on this are welcomed.
