Synopsis

The Blackstone's Police Investigators' Workbook 2014 is the official accompanying study text for the National Investigator's Exam (NIE) which is taken as part of Phase 1 of the Initial Crime Investigators' Development Programme.

Based on the content of the Investigator's Manual, the book has been completely revised for the 2014 syllabus. It contains many practical exercises, case studies and multiple choice questions to help students in England and Wales prepare for the NIE.

The Workbook takes the trainee investigator through each of the topics relevant to the examination, namely in the areas of Evidence; Property Offences; Assaults, Drugs, Firearms & Gun Crime; and Sexual Offences. The book also contains useful cross references to the Manual in the answers sections, so students can check their understanding of the content.

This Workbook is completely up-to-date for the 2014 syllabus with reference to all recent legislative changes and case law, including the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012, the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, the Criminal Procedure Rules 2012, the Terrorism Act 2000, as well as revised PACE Codes C, G and H. It also covers the new Manual chapters for investigators within immigration, customs and SOCA/National Crime Agency, covering the Immigration Act 1971 and the Customs & Excise Management Act 1979.
