This site was set up in 2008, to help people find Government consultations more easily, and to show that it could be done: quickly and easily. The site has never been funded as such, and has relied on volunteers for maintenance and support. It hasn't had much maintenance recently and this shows: some consultations can't be found and some functions don't work as they should. We are currently seeking funding for a new version of TellThemWhatYouThink.
In the meantime, you can search a limited number of departments for open consultations at the Directgov Consultation Finder.
This consultation paper sets out proposals on police powers and procedures.
The aim of this review is to establish from police and those who work with them, as well as the public whether the act and the codes of practice are still appropriate, proportionate, and relevant to the criminal justice system.
The consultation paper is available in both PDF and Word format.
