Regulation 39 Assessment of performance or attendance following third stage meeting
This regulation applies where a written improvement notice has been issued under regulation 38.
Where this regulation applies, the performance of the officer concerned shall be assessed under regulation 19 as if he had received a written improvement notice under regulation 15.
Where, as a result of such assessment, the officer concerned is required to attend a second stage meeting, these Regulations shall have effect as if he had been required to attend that meeting under regulation 19; and—
references to the period specified in accordance with regulation 14(6)(c) shall be construed as references to the period specified under regulation 38(6)(c); and
references to the validity period of the written improvement notice shall be construed as references to the validity period of the written improvement notice issued under regulation 38.
Where a police officer is required to attend such a second stage meeting, that meeting must concern unsatisfactory performance which is similar to or connected with the unsatisfactory performance referred to in the written improvement notice.
