Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Police (Discipline) Regulations 1985, as they apply to the metropolitan police force, so that a punishment of dismissal, requirement to resign or reduction in rank is not deferred pending the making and determination of an internal appeal; if an appeal made is allowed or the punishment is varied on appeal, the appeal decision takes effect in substitution for, and as from the date of, the original decision.
