What difference does being part of the NPM make? Being part of the NPM brings both recognition and responsibilities. NPM members’ powers to inspect, monitor and visit places of detention are formally recognised as part of the UK’s efforts to prevent torture. At the same time, NPM members have the responsibility to ensure that their working practices are consistent with standards for preventive monitoring established by OPCAT. 70
