Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

Where a member ceases to be a member he shall, unless he transfers to another police force, be given a certificate showing his rank and setting out the period of his service in the force and in any other police force.

(2)

The chief constable may append to the certificate any recommendation which he feels justified in giving, such as that—

  • his conduct was exemplary;

  • his conduct was very good;

  • his conduct was good.

(3)

Where a member ceases to be a member otherwise than by transferring to another police force, his personal record shall be kept for such time as the chief constable may think fit and shall then be destroyed.
