# The Service Police (Complaints etc.) Regulations 2023, Regulation 60: Final reports on investigations: other DSI matters


(1) This regulation applies on the completion of an investigation of a DSI matter in respect of which neither the Commissioner nor the appropriate authority has made a determination under regulation 55(2), (3), (4) or (7).
(2) The person investigating must—
(a) submit a report on the investigation to the Commissioner; and
(b) send a copy of that report to the appropriate authority.
(3) Paragraph (2)(a) does not apply where the person investigating is the Commissioner carrying out an investigation personally under regulation 36, but the Commissioner must complete a report on the investigation.
(4) A person submitting a report to the Commissioner under paragraph (2) or completing one under paragraph (3) is not prevented by any obligation of secrecy imposed by any rule of law or otherwise from including all such matters in that report as that person thinks fit.
(5) Where a person would contravene regulation 81 by sending a copy of a report in its entirety to the appropriate authority under paragraph (2)(b), the person must instead send a copy of the report after having removed or obscured the information which by virtue of regulation 81 the person must not disclose.
(6) On receipt of the report (or on its completion by the Commissioner), the Commissioner must determine whether the report indicates that a member of a service police force may have—
(a) committed a service offence; or
(b) behaved in such a manner that would justify the initiation of administrative action procedures.
(7) On receipt of the report (or on its completion by the Commissioner), the Commissioner must also, if the Commissioner considers it appropriate to do so, make a determination as to any matter dealt with in the report, being a determination other than one that the Commissioner is required to make under paragraph (6).
(8) But paragraphs (6) and (7) and regulation 61 do not apply, or cease to apply, in relation to a report submitted under paragraph (2) or completed under paragraph (3) if, following the submission or completion of the report, the Commissioner determines under regulation 63 that the DSI matter is to be re-investigated.
