As an Office we have encountered occasions when it has been very difficult to identify individual police vehicles. The police are now very much committed to policing with the community and co-operated with us in the work now being published. What we have tried to do here is to examine the whole issue of police identification, to gauge public and police views on the matter, and to make sensible suggestions, which are designed to facilitate better officer and equipment identification. These are very important issues. The ability to identify is critical to proper communication. Communication is essential to trust. We hope that this Report will make a small contribution to enabling better relationships between the police and those whom they serve.

    ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The Inspiration for this pocket book came from the work of the Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI), which had successfully developed 101 Things for India, and then adapted it for Ghana, Uganda, Tanzania and Kenya. Human Rights Network Uganda (HURINET-U), DIGNITY and CHRI were able to work closely during the preparation of the pocketbook. DIGNITY, The Danish Institute Against Torture, took the main responsibility for drafting the pocket book and worked in close collaboration with HURINET-U and CHRI. The expenses were provided by DIGNITY, using funds from the Danish government available through DANIDA. The team benefited from the advice of HURINET-U who organised validation forums of draft versions at national level, which included comments by the Uganda Police Force, and a number of civil society organizations. organised a validation forum at municipality level, which included both senior national police Hurinet Uganda is also grateful to the following individuals for their assistance: Catrine Shroff (NCG), Mohammed Ndifuna, Patrick Tumwine, Emmanuel Mugisha (HURINET-U), and several other staff from Hurinet Uganda. 101 Things you wanted to know about the Police but were afraid to ask 3 PART III: RIGHTS AND DUTIES THAT YOU AND THE POLICE HAVE DURING ARREST AND CUSTODY 56.

  • Accountability, Policing and the Police Service Of
    Topping, J. R. (2016) ‘Accountability, Policing and the Police Service of Northern Ireland: Local Practice, Global Standards?’, in S. Lister and M. Rowe (eds.) Accountability of Policing (Routledge Frontiers of Criminal Justice). Oxon: Routledge. Accountability, Policing and the Police Service of Northern Ireland: Local Practice, Global Standards? John Topping Almost without exception, both the development and operationalization of police accountability in Northern Ireland have gone hand-in-hand with the much lauded and complex reform process set in motion by the far-reaching recommendations of the Independent Commission for Policing in Northern Ireland (ICP, 1999). Beneath the international attention focused upon the polity’s policing affairs over nearly four decades, it may be observed that ‘knowing’ and ‘overseeing’ what the police ‘do’ have become integral to the country’s contemporary policing (and political) landscape. As part of the implicit ICP policy of ‘wrestling’ policing from the state and giving it ‘back to the people’ (Topping, 2008b), creating one of the world’s most accountable police services has become the bedrock of community trust and legitimacy not just in the police, but so too the state – not withstanding the importance of policing to the wider political settlement and stability in the country (O’Rawe, 2003). Thus, on both vertical (structural) and horizontal (socio-political) plains, the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) has become governed by a host of statutory, governmental and other bodies – generally conceived as the global ‘gold standard’ of police oversight, not limited to operational policing, human rights, public order policing and organisational governance (Ellison, 2007; Office of the Oversight Commissioner, 2007; Topping, 2008a).

Fordham International Law Journal is produced by The Berke- ley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/ilj Regulating Rights and Managing Public Order: Parade Disputes and the Peace Process, 1995-1998 Neil Jarman Abstract This Essay explores the problems that have emerged over the right to parade since 1994. It be- gins with a brief review of the historical significance of parades in Ireland before summarizing the background to the current disputes. This Essay considers the causes of the problem, the arguments of the various parties, and the development of legal controls on parades. The Essay then moves on to review the attempts that have been made to resolve the issue. In particular, the Essay focuses on the formal measures that have been taken by the British Government to resolve the disputes rather than the practical measures taken to mediate, negotiate, and police the problems at a local level. Such measures include the consideration given to the problem in the report of the Indepen- dent Review of Parades and Marches, changes that have been made to the legislation governing parading, and the formation of the Parades Commission with powers to issue legal determinations over disputes.
