Paragraph 2 C1I1
England and Wales
Any person may apply to the Secretary of State for the issue of a certificate in respect of him.
The Secretary of State shall not issue a certificate on any such application unless he is satisfied that the applicant—
is a fit and proper person to perform the relevant functions; and
has received training to such standard as he may consider appropriate for the performance of those functions.
Where the Secretary of State issues a certificate, then, subject to any suspension under paragraph 3 or revocation under paragraph 4 below, it shall continue in force until such date or the occurrence of such event as may be specified in the certificate.
A certificate authorising the performance of both escort functions and custodial duties may specify different dates or events as respects those functions and duties respectively.
