The London City Council held a special meeting last Wednesday to consider resolutions related to the London Police Department's use of the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) database, as well as a separate resolution addressing ordinance compliance. The council voted to approve both resolutions without publicly reading them during the meeting.
Why it matters
The NCIC is a critical law enforcement tool that provides access to nationwide crime data, but its use must comply with strict regulations. The council's actions indicate a need to investigate potential issues with the police department's NCIC access and compliance with local ordinances.
The details
During the special meeting, Councilmember Anthony Ortega immediately moved to approve Resolution 2026-03, which concerned an investigation into the police department's NCIC usage. The resolution was not read publicly. The council also approved a separate resolution addressing ordinance compliance, though details on that resolution were not provided.
