conclusion of the investigation. As it stands, I see
nothing to prohibit such a referral, should the A.A. think
it appropriate.
As you know, should the A.A. elect not to refer the
matter to the CPS, you would of course have a right of
appeal to the IPCC along those lines.
If you have any questions for me please do let me know.

Subject: Our meeting today.
Good Afternoon Lorraine,
Thank you for taking the team to meet with this
afternoon, I found our meeting very useful in enabling
me to better understand your complaint.
To confirm, the first thing I shall consider is a referral to
the CPS. I shall begin by examining what consideration
was given to such a referral by the previous investigator,
Jeannette Riley.
Under the legislation that governs police complaints it is
possible to seek guidance from the CPS where there is
an indication that a criminal offence may have been
committed, it is this test that I shall apply.
Leaving the CPS issue aside for a moment and the
possibility of criminal charges, I acknowledge your
request to have sight of the PC Geoghegan’s MG11 and
notebook. Such a disclosure can be made under
Schedule 3 of the Police Reform Act 2002. I shall revisit
this request once the possibility of a CPS referral has
been addressed. However, I fully intend to comply with
such a request, subject to necessary redactions.
Going forward, In addition the your original points of
