§ 18. Mr. Norman Atkinsonasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he intends to publish the code of professional conduct for the Metropolitan police, and which manuals or guidelines he intends to either update or replace as a result.
§ Mr. HurdThe commissioner tells me that he intends to publish the code or handbook of professional conduct as soon as possible. It will be an addition to, and is not intended to replace, guidance already issued. The commissioner will consider the extent to which existing guidance will need updating in the light of the handbook and on how best the message it contains might be reinforced in training.
