Sch 3 para 24A
(1) This paragraph applies on the completion of an investigation of a DSI matter in respect of which neither the Director General nor the appropriate authority has made a determination under paragraph 21A(2) , (2A) , (2B) or (4). (2) The person investigating shall— (a) submit a report on the investigation to the Director General ; and (b) send a copy of that report to the appropriate authority. (2A) Sub-paragraph (2)(a) does not apply where the person investigating is the Director General carrying out an investigation personally under paragraph 19, but the Director General must complete a report on the investigation. (3) A person submitting a report to the Director General under sub-paragraph (2) or completing one under sub-paragraph (2A) shall not be prevented by any obligation of secrecy imposed by any rule of law or otherwise from including all such matters in his report as he thinks fit. (3A) Where a person would contravene section 21A by sending a copy of a report in its entirety to the appropriate authority under sub-paragraph (2)(b), the person must instead send a copy of the report after having removed or obscured the information which by virtue of section 21A the person must not disclose. (4) On receipt of the report (or on its completion by the Director General) , the Director General shall determine whether the report indicates that a person serving with the police may have— (a) committed a criminal offence, or (b) behaved in a manner which would justify the bringing of disciplinary proceedings. (5) On receipt of the report (or on its completion by the Director General) , the Director General shall also, if the Director General 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 Director General is required to make under sub-paragraph (4) or that the appropriate authority may be required to make by virtue of paragraph 24C(3). (6) But sub-paragraphs (4) and (5) and paragraphs 24B and 24C do not apply, or cease to apply, in relation to a report submitted under sub-paragraph (2) or completed under sub-paragraph (2A) if, following the submission or completion of the report, the Director General determines under section 13B that the DSI matter is to be re-investigated.
