We are the Independent Office for Police Conduct
We are the police complaints watchdog for England and Wales. We are not the police - we are completely independent of them. We investigate the most serious complaints and conduct matters involving the police, and we set the standards by which the police should handle complaints.
Our vision is that everyone is able to have trust and confidence in the police
