38.—(1) Subject to paragraph (6) and any direction to the contrary given under regulation 22 (national security: power to give directions) a misconduct hearing must be held in public.

(2) Subject to regulations 37 and 39 and paragraph (3) of this regulation, a misconduct meeting must be held in private.

(3) A person nominated by the Director General or the Ombudsman may attend a misconduct meeting which arises from a case which has been investigated under external procedures as an observer.

(4) Unless expressly authorised by the person conducting or chairing a misconduct meeting, a witness, other than a witness who is also a complainant, an interested person or the officer concerned, may only attend the meeting for the purpose of giving evidence.

(5) The person conducting or chairing a misconduct meeting may permit a witness in the meeting to be accompanied by one other person at that meeting.

(6) Having considered any representations received under regulations 32(8)(f), 35(3) and 35(5), the person conducting or chairing the misconduct proceedings may—

(a)exclude from the whole or part of the proceedings any person who would otherwise be entitled to attend the proceedings by virtue of regulation 39 or this regulation so far as the person conducting or chairing the misconduct proceedings considers it necessary—

(i)in the interests of justice,

(ii)to protect the Convention rights of any person, or

(iii)where the proceedings involve confidential information and publicity would damage that confidentiality,

(b)in order to facilitate the proper conduct of those proceedings, impose conditions relating to the attendance at the proceedings of any person who is entitled to attend the proceedings by virtue of regulation 39 or this regulation, and

(c)in the case of a chair appointed under regulation 27(4) or (5), give such directions as they think appropriate prohibiting the publication of any matter relating to the proceedings.

(7) If a person is to give evidence as a witness in misconduct proceedings, the witness, and any person accompanying the witness, must not attend the proceedings before the witness is called to give evidence.

(8) Where it appears to the person conducting or chairing the misconduct proceedings that any person may, in giving evidence, disclose information the disclosure of which ought not to be disclosed to any person, other than a party to the proceedings, attending the proceedings because it is information to which paragraph (9) applies, they must require such attendees to withdraw while the evidence is given.

(9) This paragraph applies to information in so far as the person conducting or chairing the misconduct proceedings considers that preventing disclosure of it to an attendee is—

(a)necessary for the purpose of preventing the premature or inappropriate disclosure of information that is relevant to, or may be used in, any criminal proceedings,

(b)necessary in the interests of national security,

(c)necessary for the purpose of the prevention or detection of crime, or the apprehension or prosecution of offenders,

(d)necessary for the purpose of the prevention or detection of misconduct by other MDP officers or their apprehension for such matters,

(e)necessary and proportionate for the protection of the welfare and safety of any informant or witness, or

(f)otherwise in the public interest.
