Our investigators can :

• enter a police station or premises and examine there the books, reports, documents and effects related to the complaint under investigation, after giving notice thereof to the director of the police force concerned. However, in practice, the police departments cooperate with the Commissaire à la déontologie policière in order to send relevant information without the Commissioner's staff having to visit police stations.
• require from any person any information and any document that it considers necessary for its investigation (except from the police officers or peace officers targeted by the complaint).
