Regina v Chief Constable of Greater Manchester Police Ex P Lainton: CA 4 Apr 2000

The decision by a chief constable whether to extend the probationary period of a constable could properly be delegated to his assistant chief constable. The power to extend a probationary period could only be exercised before it actually expired. There was no statutory power to re-instate a probationary status for this purpose. At the expiry of the probation the officer became an officer simpliciter unless such an order had been made.
