Report of the Commissioner.

The Board received a report of the Commissioner which provided the Quarterly Equality and Inclusion Update.

In response to a Member’s query on the engagement with children and young it was confirmed that the Force’s dedicated school engagement policy would be addressing this directly.

The Chair commented that it was important to recognised the achievements but also where there was work to be done in this area noting that progression was as important as recruitment when improving the diversity of staff. Officers confirmed that the target was for the City of London Police to be top performer in the diversity of the Force observing that this may take a relatively extended period of time to achieve.

RESOLVED- That the report be noted.
