(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.
