Norfolk and Suffolk Constabularies have been advised to review and update their guidance following a police chase where communication issues arose. The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) published their recommendations on December 19 following a pursuit involving the National Police Air Service (NPAS). The watchdog identified "organisational learning" after the force's control room asked the NPAS to take over commentary but their updates "did not relay key moments" over the radio. This meant, according to the report, the control room did not have all the information needed to "inform their risk assessments". In the published recommendations the IOPC said the issue was in part due to NPAS "not observing all the activities on the ground and due to radio signal issues" and added that officers said they did not provide updates to the radio channel as they believed NPAS had primacy and/or due to signal issues. NPAS staff said there is "no guidance" on the commentary expected of them during pursuit while officers said they had not had training on NPAS commentary. The IOPC recommended Norfolk and Suffolk Constabularies review and update, their force guidance and training on the role of the National Police Air Service (NPAS) to "ensure it is aligned with national guidance". The recommendation stated training should clarify the level of commentary expected from NPAS and from police units on the ground. Norfolk and Suffolk Pursuits training has since been reviewed and it has been discussed that National Learning objectives "do not cover the NPAS aspect". The published report continues to explain Mr Pooley, chief driving instructor, will be attending a national forum in January 2025 when this will be raised. "This opportunity and forum could provide some direction for discussions and possible recommendations going forward," the response reads. The report also identified issues with the technology used to downlink aerial images to the control room. NPAS aircrafts are fitted with Airborne Data Links which enable aircraft staff to downlink aerial images to the control rooms to give them a better understanding of what is going on. The report states: "Unfortunately, on the day of the incident, the downlink function had not been working and this was reportedly due to issues with its compatibility with Microsoft Edge." A meeting has since taken place with Mr Stratford, infrastructure engineering manager. The response explained that in mid-2024 Mr Stratford arranged for the system manufacturer to test the system and an issue was established which has now been rectified. Another fault was also identified but "operational capacity was maintained". "Testing is now undertaken on each of the aerials. There is a process of disconnecting one of the receivers to ensure that both are working," the response reads. A police spokesperson said: "The constabulary received the October 2024 recommendations from the IOPC in relation to a police pursuit. "We welcome any feedback and have taken steps to review the guidance, with new training already in place which incorporates the recommendations."Individual differences in sleep needs can also be influenced by genetics.
