Advancing a Social Identity Perspective on Interoperability in the Emergency Services: Evidence from the Pandemic Multi-Agency Response Teams During the UK Covid-19 Response Previous research shows there are persistent challenges with multi-agency response centring on problems of communication and coordination. The Social Identity Approach provides an important psychological framework for analysing relations within and between groups which can be used to understand why challenges in multi-agency response occur, and what can be done to prevent them re-occurring in the future. Pandemic Multi-Agency Response Teams (PMART) were introduced in some areas of the UK during the initial months of the COVID-19 pandemic to respond to suspected COVID-19 deaths in the community. We conducted 14 semi-structured interviews with responders from the Police and Fire and Rescue Services who were involved in these teams. Interviews were analysed using thematic analysis. Results show that responders appeared to share a pre-existing superordinate identity of all being members of the blue-light service . This identity was made salient through responders experiencing positive contact with each other. Responders also shared the situational superordinate identity of PMART which was both created, and then made salient, through positive contact with each other as well as responders sharing difficult experiences. Structural factors such as inequalities in building access and different shift patterns increased the salience of sub-group identities and caused conflicts between these identities, creating operational challenges for multi-agency working. This research advances our understanding of multi-agency working from a social identity perspective by providing evidence of a shared social identity at an operational level of emergency response. Practical implications of this research are discussed. SSRN	29/3/2022 Research article

Prosecutorial and Police Disclosure Ethics in Criminal Evidence Review in the UK and the US. A Comparative Account This article offers a comparative analysis of the phenomenon of pre-trial non-disclosure of criminal evidence, as exhibited by police and prosecution authorities in the US and English legal systems. The majority of literature that focuses on the subject of disclosure and specifically non-disclosure when it comes to criminal evidence review, explores the challenges and experiences of the US and English disclosure systems in isolation. This article considers disclosure ethics in the context of systemic cultural patterns exhibited by prosecution and police authorities in both jurisdictions. Thus, by conducting a step-by-step appreciation of the culture and operative practices experienced in both common-law systems, the article aims to offer a better understanding of the causes that lie behind police and prosecutorial ethical violations of disclosure duties. Specifically, I conclude that both police officials and prosecutors in England and the US enjoy a significant number of incentives that encourage unethical behavior and set low standards for performing one’s ethical and legal duty to disclose. At the same time, both criminal justice systems do not appear to put enough measures in place in order to punish and deter such occurrences.
