North Yorkshire Police has been asked to review “all relevant material” relating to contact its officers had with Jimmy Savile.
According to the BBC, the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) is acting "in light of information received" and said it wanted to know whether there were "conduct matters that should be referred to us".
An IPCC spokesman was quoted on the BBC website as saying: "In the light of information received, the IPCC is writing to North Yorkshire Police to ask them to review all relevant material and information to establish whether there are conduct matters that should be referred to us.
"The IPCC has received the recently published report from West Yorkshire Police arising from the Savile case.
"The IPCC has received an earlier referral from the force in relation to the alleged actions of a former West Yorkshire police inspector which is being assessed.
"The IPCC is collating responses from a number of forces we have written to asking them to review all relevant material and information to establish whether there are conduct matters that should be referred to us."
