Talking Crime With Danny Shaw : Phill Matthews

Is the police disciplinary process fair on officers? Why do some who are facing allegations seek anonymity? Should chairs of misconduct panels be independent legal experts - or senior police officers?These were some of the key issues discussed by Phill Matthews, from the Police Federation, and Policing TV’s Chief Presenter, Danny Shaw, when they met at the Federation’s annual conference in Manchester for the latest edition of ‘Talking Crime’.Sergeant Matthews, who’s served with Nottinghamshire Police for 30 years, is chair of the Federation’s conduct and performance sub-committee, a post he’s held since 2016.
