Background
Home Office enforcement officers exercise serious powers of entry,detention and questioning, yet unlike police officers they are not required to wear body cameras or follow legal safeguards. This lack of transparency allows abuse, coercion and unfair practices to go unchecked. Individuals and businesses face penalties on flawed investigations. Parliament must act to introduce body cameras to all officers, legal warnings, access to legal advice, interpreter,and clear limits on enforcement powers.
