| Date | Category | Guidance | Changes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Investigation > Investigative strategies | Passive data generators | Removed the section on CCTV. Due to the introduction of the Forensic Science Regulator Code of Practice. The development and implementation of the Code is required under section 2 of The Forensic Science Regulator Act 2021. The Code came into force on 2 October 2023. With the Code already being in place there is an imperative to bring the APP in line with the current obligations on forces/practitioners. As such, this section has been updated and moved into its own sub-section beneath passive data generators so that it is easier to find and use for practitioners. |
