Metropolitan Police consultation response

The Restorative Justice Council has submitted a response to a consultation on the Metropolitan Police. Our main recommendations are for:

• Restorative justice to be made available to every victim and offender in London through a multi-agency delivery partnership.
• Restorative justice to be used as the default response to low level crime and antisocial behaviour to save money and cut crime.
• Restorative practice to be used to deal with police complaints across the force, following the recent pilot of this approach.
