On 4 August 2006, the applicant lodged a number of complaints about Central Scotland Police concerning the manner in which officers had dealt with a road traffic collision in which he was involved. During the investigation of his complaints, the applicant sent a number of letters personally addressed to the Chief Constable and Deputy Chief Constable.
The applicant thereafter made complaints to Central Scotland Joint Police Board about alleged acts and omissions by the Chief Constable and Deputy Chief Constable. A Complaints Sub - Committee was convened and the applicant's complaints were considered under the terms of the Police (Conduct) (Senior Officers) (Scotland) Regulations 1999.
The Commissioner found that all the complaints were dealt with reasonably by Central Scotland Joint Police Board.
The Commissioner identified a learning point during the course of the review. This related to the request by Central Scotland Joint Police Board that the applicant set out his complaints in such a way as to reflect the categories of misconduct set out in the Schedule to the 1999 Regulations.
