[F124A(1)This paragraph applies on the completion of an investigation of a DSI matter in respect of which neither the [F2Director General] nor the appropriate authority has made a determination under paragraph 21A(2) [F3, (2A)] [F4, (2B)] or (4).E+W

(2)[F5The person investigating] shall—

(a)submit a report on the investigation to the [F2Director General]; and

(b)send a copy of that report to the appropriate authority.

[F6(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 [F7to the [F2Director General]] under [F8sub-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.

[F9(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 [F10(or on its completion by the Director General)], the [F2Director 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.

[F11(5)On receipt of the report [F12(or on its completion by the Director General)], the [F2Director General] shall also, if [F13the 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 [F13the 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).]
