Paragraph 14D C1F1
The Secretary of State may by regulations provide that the Director General must determine that it is necessary for DSI matters referred to the Director General in relation to which the relevant officer is a chief officer or the Deputy Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis to be investigated.
Regulations under sub-paragraph (1A) may provide that the duty on the Director General applies only in relation to DSI matters in relation to which the relevant officer is a chief officer or the Deputy Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis that are of a description specified in the regulations.
Regulations under sub-paragraph (1A) may also provide that, where the Director General is required by the regulations to determine that it is necessary for a DSI matter to be investigated, paragraph 15 is to apply in relation to the matter as if sub-paragraphs (4)(a), (4A) and (5A)(b) were omitted.
Where the Director General determines under this paragraph that it is not necessary for a DSI matter to be investigated F6—
in a case where the DSI matter is already being investigated by the appropriate authority on its own behalf (and notwithstanding the F7Director General's determination), the Director General must refer the matter back to the appropriate authority for the investigation to be completed, and
in any other case, the Director General may, if the Director General thinks fit, refer the matter back to the appropriate authority to be dealt with by that authority in such manner (if any) as that authority may determine.
