EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order rectifies an omission in the Independent Police Complaints Commission (Transitional Provisions) Order 2004 (S.I. 2004/671) which makes transitional provision in connection with the coming into force of a new system of handling complaints against the police.
This Order provides that the Independent Police Complaints Commission will take over not only the supervision of complaints which had previously been referred to the Police Complaints Authority (as is already provided for in that earlier Order), but will also take over the supervision of other matters which had been voluntarily referred to the Authority by a police authority or chief officer of police. Where such a matter has already been dealt with by the Police Complaints Authority, it may not then be recorded as a complaint or a conduct matter under the new regime.
