DETERMINATIONS UNDER THE POLICE (SPECIAL CONSTABLES) (SCOTLAND) REGULATIONS 2006

The Scottish Ministers, in exercise of the powers conferred by regulations 8, 10, 12, 20, 22, 23 and 25 of the Police (Special Constables) (Scotland) Regulations 2006 ("The Regulations") have determined that:

a) the standard of eyesight which must be met by a candidate for appointment to a police force as a Special Constable is that specified in Annex A;

b) periods of probation shall be applicable as specified in Annex B;

c) the normal periods of duty of special constable (including periods allowed for refreshment) and circumstances in which travelling time may be treated as duty shall be those specified in Annex C;

d) a special constable shall be entitled to any allowance specified in Annex D in accordance with that Annex D;

e) a special constable shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses in accordance with Annex E.

In making their determinations in respect of these matters, the Scottish Ministers supplied the Police Advisory Board for Scotland with a draft of the determination and took into consideration any representations made by that Board.

(1) Expressions used in these determinations which also appear in the Regulations have the same meaning as in the Regulations.

(2) In these determinations, the expression "joint branch board" means the joint branch board mentioned in regulation 7(3) of the Police Federation (Scotland) Regulations 1985.

These determinations shall come into force on [x] 2006 and, except where otherwise stated, have effect from that date.
