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

If you would like to challenge a fine received under Coronavirus legislation, please contact the Network for Police Monitoring.
