Corkindale v Police Medical Appeal Board and Another: QBD 21 Dec 2006

The claimant a police officer appealed a refusal of the Police Medical Board to find her permanently disabled because though she was found such in her present force, another force might be ready to offer her work.
Held: What counted was the status as against her present employer. The word ‘force’ in the regulation referred to the force in which the officer was employed, not the general police service. There is no national police force.
