Custody inspections

Police custody inspections are usually published as force-level reports covering custody facilities operated by Northumbria Police, rather than as a separate report for each individual suite.

The joint custody inspection programme looks at how police forces detain people in custody, including safety, respectful treatment, legal rights, healthcare, release and transfer.

HMICFRS police custody inspection collection

These reports are part of the HMICFRS police custody inspection programme carried out with HM Inspectorate of Prisons and healthcare inspection partners.
