'Clueless' Cleveland Police 'putting public at risk'
Cleveland Police has been"operating without a clear plan or direction", inspectors said
Cleveland Police has been"operating without a clear plan or direction", HM Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services said in a new report. There were"too many examples" of high ranking officers and staff"not taking responsibility, not acting with honesty, integrity and competence, and apportioning blame", it concluded.Inspectors highlighted senior officers providing"incorrect" statements during the inspection and said they were"unable to provide evidence" of actions they claimed the force was taking.
And while the force acts"promptly" on reports of corruption within its ranks,"it needs to proactively root out corruption and identify those people at risk of it, to try and prevent it from happening" the report said.
