The Conservative Party says it will hold a formal inquiry into how the police have been performing and into corruption. It wants to make the police watchdog (IPCA) have clearer legal duties. It also wants to make it easier for people who represent themselves in court. The party supports the idea of equal justice as a core principle.
“Commission of Inquiry into under-performance and corruption; statutory obligations on the IPCA; protection of police testifying in international drug trafficking cases; review of drone-related legislation.”
“Improving access to justice for self-represented litigants.”
“Equal justice. Individual rights & responsibilities.”
