Regulation 3
Less serious conduct
Subregulation 1
If it is represented to the Authority by the chief executive officer that an officer has been guilty of misconduct or neglect of duty and the Authority is of the opinion that the subject of the complaint is not serious enough to warrant proceedings under regulation 4 with a view to dismissal or reduction in rank, the Authority may cause an investigation to be made into the matter in such manner as it thinks fit, and the officer shall be informed in writing of the case against him and shall have a reasonable opportunity of replying thereto.
Subregulation 2
After considering the case made against the officer, his reply thereto and the results of the investigation, if any, the Authority may —
if it is of the opinion that the allegation has been proved, impose a penalty such as stoppage or deferment of increment, fine or reprimand, or a combination of such penalties; or
if it is of the opinion that the results of such investigation disclose grounds for so doing, require the officer to retire in the public interest without further proceedings under these Regulations, with or without a reduction in retirement benefits.
Subregulation 3
An officer required to retire under paragraph (2)(b) shall be given an opportunity to submit to the Authority a reply to the grounds upon which his retirement is contemplated.
