What The Police Say
The Greater Manchester Police said in a statement: “The process undertaken with the NHS track and trace service is not usually conducted by GMP, unless there is a breach. This means that the local authority will be contacted first if someone has not answered the calls made from the NHS to check if they are isolating as required.”
Suspected Breach Protocol
The police continued to explain: “By working in partnership with the local authority, police officers will then be asked to attend as there has been unanswered calls and a suspected breach to carry out the checks and issue a fixed penalty notice if required. Any engagement will be done directly with the person who has been asked to self-isolate.”
