We understand from the passage that in addition to reforming the police force, Peel also ----.
Sir Robert Peel will always be remembered as the
one who created the Metropolitan police force but
first he set about reducing the savagery of the
criminal law and he also introduced various prison
reforms. Such changes could not be risked without
an efficient police force. So in 1829 he set about
creating just that. The original characteristics of the
new police were that they were to be an organized
non-military force of paid constables (with officers)
under two magistrates, as joint commissioners,
responsible to the home secretary, an office like that
of Minister of the Interior. To emphasize their civilian
character, they wore as uniform a dark blue highcollared
swallow-tail coat and a heavy chimney-pot
hat (not to be superseded by the tunic and helmet
until about 1865), and carried no arms but only a
truncheon. Until 1885 they had no whistle, only a
rattle for summoning assistance. Their earliest
instructions were prefaced with the following words
which still appear in the forefront of their standing
orders: the primary object of an efficient police force
is the prevention of crime is committed. The
protection of life and property, the preservation of
public tranquility, and the absence of crime, will alone
prove whether the objects for which the police we
reappointed have been attained.
