Changes and effects yet to be applied by the editorial team are only applicable when viewing the latest version or prospective version of legislation. They are therefore not accessible when viewing legislation as at a specific point in time.

(2) The Chief Constable is not liable for relevant damages in respect of any act or omission of a constable under the Chief Constable's direction or control in the performance or purported performance of a function of that constable in relation to a closure order or any extension of it.
(3) But neither paragraph (1) nor (2) applies—
(a)if the act or omission is shown to have been in bad faith; or

(4) This Article does not affect any other exemption from liability for damages (whether at common law or otherwise).
