French President Emmanuel Macron has announced measures to make the police more transparent about wrongdoings
PARIS -- French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday announced measures to make the police more transparent about wrongdoings, including the publication of internal investigation reports and the creation of a parliamentary monitoring body. Macron's speech in a police school in Roubaix, in northern France, comes after a monthslong national consultation about needed changes to the police, following allegations of violence and racism. “When there are misconducts, they must lead to sanctions. When there are problems, they must get a response," Macron said. “We have nothing to fear from a greater transparency.” Macron said international investigation reports about allegations of police abuse and misconduct will now be made public. They must lead to “clear decisions” about officers and organization issues, he added.More Related News
