Controlling the Constable: Police Accountability in England and Wales

By Tony Jefferson and Roger Grimshaw

In the early 1980s, the question of how far the police should be accountable for their actions had become vexed. First published in 1984, the authors examine closely the concept of constabulary independence. They look at the relevant legal history and at how this independence was used by chief constables from day to day.
