Independent Ethics and Appeals Committee
The primary purpose of this Committee is to challenge and scrutinise the delivery of a policing Service to ensure transparency.
Following agreement by the Joint Independent Audit Committee (JIAC) and the Professional Standards Board, an Ethics and Appeals Sub-Committee of JIAC was originally established from June 2013, consisting of 3 members.
It functioned as a Sub-Committee of the Joint Independent Audit Committee (JIAC) which routinely received the minutes of the Sub-Committee. Since the disbanding of JIAC and the implementation of the Independent Audit Committee, the Ethics and Appeals Committee has been established as a committee in its own right.
The findings of the Committee on matters of ethics and professional standards are still reported directly to the Professional Standards Board by the Chairman of the Committee.
