HMICFRS purpose
To promote improvements in policing and fire and rescue services to make everyone safer.
HMICFRS role
HMICFRS independently assesses the effectiveness and efficiency of police forces and fire and rescue services - in the public interest.
In preparing their reports, they ask the questions that citizens would ask, and publish the answers in accessible form, using their expertise to interpret the evidence and make recommendations for improvement.
They provide authoritative information to allow the public to compare the performance of their fire and rescue services against others. Their evidence is used to drive improvements in the services provided to the public.
