The role of the DI is to deliver the policing mission within the national Counter Terrorism Strategy and discharge its Prevent duty requirements (as set within the Counter Terrorism & Security Act 2015); namely “to prevent the vulnerable from being drawn into terrorism and to prevent extremists from escalating into terrorism & radicalising others”
