UK Police Set to ‘Recruit’ Cyber Security Volunteers
"Home secretary Theresa May has announced plans to allow police to draft in civilian volunteers to help them solve cybercrime in England and Wales.
The updates to the Policing and Crime Bill will give volunteers powers for the first time without having to become a Special Constable. In fact, volunteers will be designated with powers in the same way as permanent staff for the first time, according to the Home Office."
