(2) On receipt of the report, the chief executive must— (a) determine whether the conditions in paragraphs (3) and (4) are satisfied in respect of the report; (b) if the chief executive determines that the conditions in paragraphs (3) and (4) are satisfied, notify the Director of Public Prosecutions of the determination and send the Director of Public Prosecutions a copy of the report; and (c) notify the persons mentioned in paragraph (6) of the chief executive’s determination under sub-paragraph (a) and of any action taken by the chief executive under sub-paragraph (b). (3) The first condition is that the report indicates that a criminal offence may have been committed by a person to whose conduct the investigation related. (4) The second condition is that the circumstances are such that, in the opinion of the chief executive, it is appropriate for the matters dealt with in the report to be considered by the Director of Public Prosecutions. (5) The Director of Public Prosecutions must notify the chief executive of any decision of the Director of Public Prosecutions to take, or not to take, action in respect of the matters dealt with in any report a copy of which has been sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions under paragraph (2)(b).

(8) It shall be the duty of the chief executive— (a) to take the action which the chief executive determines under paragraph (7) that the chief executive is required to, or will in the chief executive’s discretion, take; and (b) in a case where that action consists of, or includes, the bringing of disciplinary proceedings, secure that those proceedings, once brought, are proceeded with to a proper conclusion.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

How this law is officially changed

Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
