The party has set up a panel of experts tasked with coming up with reforms to reverse the decline in the number of offences being solved. If it wins power at the next general election, Labour will put the ideas into action. But the Tories accuse the Opposition of being 'soft' on crime.
According to Labour, the party's Charging Commission will devise recommendations for key areas, including improvements to digital forensics to help police crack more cases and cutting red tape in joint-working arrangements between forces and the Crown Prosecution Service .
Emily Thornberry, the shadow attorney general, said it was time to replace the"blame game" between the police and the CPS over plummeting charge rates with cooperation to punish criminals and protect communities.Dame Vera said the commission will"forensically investigate the causes of this charging crisis, and set out robust recommendations for recovery".
