This Remembrance Sunday, we honour the service and sacrifice of all those who have served in our Armed Forces.

Our thoughts are also with their families, including those who have lost loved ones.

We will remember them.

🚨 We’re inspecting how police forces in England and Wales address retail crime.

We’ll look at how forces investigate retail crime, work with retailers and target repeat offenders.

We intend to publish our findings by next summer.

Police forces and fire and rescue services are not fully prepared for the growing threat from cyberattacks.

Our latest report finds many organisations still have much work to do to address recurring cybersecurity weaknesses.
