We continue to keep the Joint Interim Interview Protocol under review.

As noted in the Government’s full response to the Criminal Legal Aid Independent Review consultation, published in November 2022, we are exploring the further use of remote legal advice in police stations. We will work with partners from across the justice system and related stakeholders.
