The police sometimes issue warning notices to individuals where there are allegations of harassment. This note explains what these are and why they are used. Constituents sometimes ask about the status of Police Information Notices (PINs) which the police may issue where there are allegations of harassment.


A Harassment Prevention Order issued at a 10 day hearing can be in effect for up to one year. If you go to court on the date when the extended order is set to end, you can ask the court to extend the order for whatever additional time is reasonably necessary to protect you or to make a permanent order.


Once a police caution has been issued, your records are held by the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) for 6 years (this is reduced to 2 years if you were 18 during the time of the caution was issued). Although a caution is not the same as a criminal conviction, it can still have implications to your life.

If in the chief police officer's opinion a police information notice might be relevant and ought to be disclosed on an enhanced DBS certificate, he can include it. Individual police authorities have internal guidance on the matter.
R (L) v. Commissioner of Police for the Metropolis [2007] EWCA Civ 168. where the appellant argued that 'any information' should be read narrowly to mean only matters which relate to criminal activity or propensity. The court disagreed, finding that 'any information' means just that.
