NARPO represents the interests of in excess of 76,000 former police officers of all ranks and their widows. Our primary concern is to promote measures for the welfare of our members with particular regard to pensions. In promoting those aims we take a general interest in all issues affecting the health and well being of older people in society.
We are active members of the Public Service Pensioners Council, the National Pensioners Convention and AGE, the European Platform for Older People. In addition we have close associations with several charities supporting both the police and older people.
NARPO are in a position to comment on a range of issues, not only pensions, from the perspective of the older person. We are in a particularly informed position to comment on policing and police related issues from the position of both former practitioners and current users of the service.

These officers are paid a pension to recognise the losses associated with their injury.

In this response to your invitation to provide evidence to the Independent Review of Police Officers and Staff Remuneration and Conditions, we will not comment on all the areas under consideration in detail but hope what we do say, which is borne out of considerable experience of the police service, will be helpful.

We know, as they do, the difficulties of dealing with rampant youths who are out of control on the streets of Britain. Holding the line against wanton criminality is what the police have been doing.

We often hear of the ‘Americanisation’ of abortion politics in the UK, but unpicking the substantive threats to women’s reproductive rights in the US can be a challenge.
