More than 100 Met Police officers being investigated for sexual misconduct are currently working without restrictions.
Deputy Assistant Commissioner Helen Millichap said: "We recognise identifying and bringing to justice those in the Met who corrupt our integrity by committing abuses against women and girls is vital in rebuilding the trust of our communities and increasing reporting."
Steps were being taken towards this goal through expanding and creating new units to investigate officers, she added. Asked if it was too difficult for police forces to sack officers, Helen King, former assistant commissioner at the Met, said "there is clear evidence that the current system doesn't work".British Transport Police launching a judicial reviewPC Imran Aftab had been found guilty of gross misconduct by a disciplinary panel but was given a final written notice rather than a dismissal, until Chief Constable Lucy D'Orsi took the matter to the High Court.
But as well as changes to the rules, Ms King said, police leaders needed to "put the resourcing and expertise into making sure that those who shouldn't be carrying a warrant card aren't able to do so"..
