Further statement from the Mayor on the incident at Manchester Airport

The Mayor of Greater Manchester, Andy Burnham, has issued a further statement regarding the incident at Manchester Airport:

The Deputy Mayor and I have now had the opportunity to meet with both the Home Secretary and the regional director of the Independent Office for Police Conduct.

It was agreed that the IOPC investigation now under way will be carried out as swiftly as possible, will involve community stakeholders, and will be truly independent.

The precise arrangements will be set out by the IOPC.

I hope this provides further reassurance to people that all the right steps are being taken, that all relevant issues will be fully considered, and gives people confidence in the process as it moves forward.
