Coronavirus & Policing
COVID-19, and the new Coronavirus act, has lead to some significant changes in police behaviour and protest law.
There are changes to:
- New police powers
- Laws that might be used at a protest
- How police interviews are conducted
Our key messages are still true!
If you would like to challenge a fine received under Coronavirus legislation, please contact the Network for Police Monitoring.
