For regulation 51 (resumption of investigation after criminal proceedings) substitute— Resumption of investigation of complaint after criminal proceedings 51 (1) This regulation applies where— (a) the Director General or an appropriate authority has suspended the whole or part of the investigation of a complaint until the conclusion of criminal proceedings under regulation 50 (circumstances in which an investigation or other procedure may be suspended), and (b) those proceedings have concluded. (2) Where the complainant has not indicated— (a) a wish for the investigation to start or be resumed, or (b) a wish that the investigation is not started or resumed, the Director General or appropriate authority (as the case may be) must write to the complainant to determine how the complainant wishes to proceed. (3) Where the complainant indicates a wish for the investigation to start or be resumed, the Director General or appropriate authority (as the case may be) must start or resume the investigation. (4) Where the complainant— (a) indicates a wish that the investigation is not started or resumed, or (b) does not reply to a letter under paragraph (2) within a period of 28 days beginning with the day after the day on which the letter was sent by the Director General or appropriate authority in accordance with paragraph (2), the Director General or appropriate authority (as the case may be) must determine whether it is in the public interest for the complaint to be treated as a recordable conduct matter. (5) Where the Director General or appropriate authority determines that it is not in the public interest for the complaint to be treated as a recordable conduct matter, the provisions of these Regulations cease to apply to the complaint. (6) Where the Director General or appropriate authority determines that it is in the public interest for the complaint to be treated as a recordable conduct matter, these Regulations apply to the matter. (7) Subject to paragraph (8), the Director General or appropriate authority (as the case may be) must notify the person complained against if paragraph (5) or (6) applies. (8) Nothing in paragraph (7) requires the Director General or appropriate authority to make a notification if the Director General or appropriate authority (as the case may be) believes that that might prejudice any criminal investigation or pending proceedings or would be contrary to the public interest. .

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.
