Part 3: Policing and investigation Chapter 2: Investigation of incidents by statutory inspectors Section 67: Application to police officers
Subsection (1) provides that an inspector may exercise their powers under sections 63 to 65 in relation to a police constable in the same way they do with any other person, subject to any exceptions created in regulations in subsection (3).  This will apply to every sworn police officer regardless of rank as they derive their power from the Office of Constable.
	Subsection (2)(a) explains that where information, items or material is held by a constable, their respective police force, or body to which the constable belongs, in connection with an investigation conducted by the constable or police force, an inspector of incidents can require this to be provided to them. For example, the police constable may hold information on a person of interest that should be shared with an inspector but is not necessarily information collected as part of any investigation into a road incident.
	Subsection 2(b) provides that where a constable is investigating an incident that the inspector is also investigating, the inspector may require a police constable to allow them access to: a place where the constable is investigating, information, items or material relevant to the inspector’s investigation, and a witness to the incident for an interview (including those under criminal suspicion in connection with the incident), before any other interview takes place.
	Subsection (3) permits the Secretary of State to make regulations setting out circumstances in which an inspector is not to exercise a power in relation to a constable, and circumstances in which a constable is not required to comply with a requirement of an inspector. For example, a constable could refuse a request if complying would adversely affect an investigation the constable is conducting or put them in danger. Regulations may also specify circumstances in which a constable does not commit an offence under section 66.
