Home PageA wiki Act was launched in September 2007, as an innovative way to capture public views on what a new Policing Act might look like. We got an overwhelming response, especially after news of the wiki spread internationally. The cyber conversation stretched far and wide. Contributors came up with ideas for a new Act which covered a broad range of topics, from high-level governance to day-to-day administration. After the huge amount of interest generated, the fully-open wiki has now run its course. The logical next step was to consolidate everyone's suggestions, drawing on the final version of the wiki Act, and back-capturing ideas from the wiki's history. The resulting wiki Act, as at 1 October 2007, is accessible from this site as a document of record. Along with other inputs from traditional consultation channels, it's a resource that can feed into the upcoming parliamentary law-making process. While a great deal has been gained from this initial use of wiki technology as part of the Police Act Review, it doesn't have to end there. If you'd like to keep adding ideas, please email us ([email protected]) with your suggestions. So, thanks for your interest, and get in touch if you've still got thoughts to add to the mix!
