Surrey Police has been told it needs to improve the way it tackles serious and organised crime, following an inspection.
Det Ch Supt Till Sanderson of Surrey Police and Sussex Police, said: "Since the inspection we have made significant progress and I am confident that we will continue to do so." Some teams said their equipment was not fit for purpose, such as a covert team that was using radios that were too conspicuous for covert operations.
At the time of the inspection, a team that should have had 18 detective constable posts had five vacancies, the report said.
