Short profile:
The IPCC's job is to make sure that complaints against the police in England and Wales are dealt with effectively. It sets standards for the way the police handle complaints and, when something has gone wrong, it helps the police learn lessons and improve the way it works.
Detailed description:
The IPCC oversees the police complaints system and sets the standards by which the police should handle complaints. It is independent, making its decisions entirely independently of the police, government and complainants. The IPCC considers appeals from people who are not satisfied with the way the police force has dealt with their complaint. Each police force has a Professional Standards Department (PSD) which is responsible for considering complaints and conduct matters involving police officers and police staff within their force. The majority of complaints received by the IPCC are passed to the PSD for them to resolve.
