The black community are the least confident in our policing in the country, they are under represented in the police workforce and they are more likely to be subjects of police use of force, so we need to acknowledge that and that is an important part of training.

County lines is a really horrific crime, which is a violent one, which is about basically the journey that drugs take across the country to get to people who want to buy their drugs for their weekend drug taking or for their drug use.
As part of that training, there is an element of understanding there is a history of racism, that is part of the training.
We have a big programme that we fund from government that targets those people who are the real power behind the county lines network.
The recommendations would shape the government's programme of police reform to strengthen leadership, raise standards and restore confidence in policing.
