Blackstone's Police Q&As 2012 are essential revision tools for all police officers sitting the OSPRE Part 1 promotion examinations. Written in partnership with the best-selling Blackstone's Police Manuals, the only study guides endorsed by the National Policing Improvement Agency, the Q&As' experienced author team follow subjects in the same sequence as the Manuals, providing the most authoritative means of self-testing outside of the Promotion Examinations. Blackstone's Police Q&A: Evidence and Procedure 2012 contains hundreds of multiple-choice questions designed to reinforce knowledge and understanding of the Evidence and Procedure Manual. Matching the format of the promotion examinations, each Question has a detailed and comprehensive Answer that highlights not only the correct response, but also the reasoning behind the incorrect responses, allowing candidates to highlight any gaps or weaknesses in their knowledge. Full cross-references to the relevant Manual paragraphs and Keynotes support more effective studying and a question checklist helps candidates track their progress. The 2012 editions of this popular series contain important updates, reflecting changes to the 2012 versions of the Blackstone's Police Manuals. This new edition on Evidence and Procedure now includes three new chapters on Custody Officer's Duties, Identification, and Interviews, featuring specific questions on the complete PACE Codes of Practice. Other titles in the series are: Crime Q&A 2012, Road Policing Q&A 2012, and General Police Duties Q&A 2012. This product is not endorsed by the NPIA.
