Is it possible to find out the reason a person was dismissed from the police?

angelfire

As the title suggests, how would a person go about obtaining this information, is it even possible?


Google searches reveal national archives, but this was more recent..










Many thanks!

Only if they committed a crime, and the details were reported in the papers.

Anything else is likely to be protected by data protection laws.

Quite rightly - no.


Just like I cant find out why if you were dismissed...

If they were the subject of an IPCC investigation the report will most likely be on their website.

If there was a tribunal it will be online

Lots of incomplete information on here.


There is not a tribunal to effect a dismissal.
Nor does the IPCC dismiss police staff.
Nor does a criminal conviction provide the reason for dismissal.


The latter two do give an indication, but the police are still covered by the vast majority of employment laws.
