Regulation 2 amends the Police Regulations 2003. The effect of the amendments is to provide for the abolition of fixed-term appointments for commanders in the metropolitan and City of London police forces and for assistant chief constables elsewhere. In relation to other senior ranks, maximum periods are now specified for fixed-term appointments and extensions to those appointments. Previously, the Secretary of State could determine the range within which a fixed-term had to fall and the circumstances in which a fixed-term appointment could be extended.
Regulation 3 provides that existing fixed-term appointments of commanders in the metropolitan and City of London police forces and of assistant chief constables become indefinite.
