The Independent Police Complaints Council (IPCC,Chinese: 獨立監察警方處理投訴委員會) is a civilian body of the Government of Hong Kong, part of the two-tier system in which the Hong Kong Police Force investigates complaints made by the public against its members and the IPCC monitors those investigations. The IPCC was created in 1994 and succeeded an earlier independent review body, the Police Complaints Committee or PCC, to investigate police. The PCC was created in 1986 and reported to the then Governor of Hong Kong. There have been criticisms in LegCo that the IPCC has limited monitoring power.
