Civic intelligence prototype
An experiment in explaining, tracking and discussing real legislation. It is not an official parliamentary service, and nothing on it is a vote, a poll or legal advice. Records were verified on 2026-09-23; always check the official page for each law before relying on it.
UK Parliament — now an Act (2026 c. 20)
CRIME AND POLICING ACT 2026 (INTRODUCED AS THE CRIME AND POLICING BILL 2025)
It expands police powers and creates new offences, so the balance between enforcement capacity and individual rights shifts with each commencement.
Records of contact, donations, employment, or public advocacy do not by themselves prove improper influence or wrongdoing.
