Subject to paragraph (2), the normal hours of duty of a police cadet shall be such as are determined by or with the authority of the chief officer of police.

Where a police cadet, for the purposes of training, is assigned to duties with a member of the police force, his normal weekly period of duty shall be 40 hours.

A police cadet whose actual period of duty in any week exceeds his normal period of duty (which excess period of duty is hereinafter referred to as “overtime”) shall, within 28 days, be granted in respect of each complete quarter of an hour of overtime an equal period of time off and, in addition, in respect of each complete three-quarters of an hour of overtime an additional quarter of an hour of time off.

To such extent, if any, as the chief officer of police in a particular case may decide, the period spent by a police cadet on a journey necessary to enable him to report for duty or to return home after duty shall be treated for the purposes of these Regulations as falling within a period of duty.
