Clause 31 - Removal etc. of senior officers at the instance of the Secretary of State
Police Reform Bill [Lords]
5:45 pm

Mr Ian Lucas (Wrexham, Labour)
Is it not better to set out the full procedure by which the Secretary of State can initiate the termination of employment of a chief constable, rather than having a situation in which his job is ended by a press release? The Bill contains the formal procedure.
