Report of the Town Clerk

The Committee received the Independent Custody Visiting Scheme (ICVS) Annual report informing of the issues raised by the ICV Panel in relation to custody provision in the City of London.

Members raised a number of points in relation to the timing of visits and rights of access, and it was also suggested that there should also be a focus on young people and those with mental health issues.

In response to a question concerning details of the type of complaints raised by those being held in custody, the Commissioner advised that these were reported to the Professional Standards and Integrity Sub-Committee.

RESOLVED – That the report be noted.
