Management of the RCMP Disciplinary Process Annual Reports

Last year’s report, the first of its kind on the management of the RCMP’s disciplinary process, included a chapter which provided information about the origins and evolution of RCMP disciplinary practices and procedures. This background information in Appendix C of this report can be referenced for details pertaining to the interaction between the discipline regime requirements prescribed by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Act and its Regulations, the Commissioner’s Standing Orders, internal policies and case law.

This year’s report includes information that explains how the management and function of the disciplinary process is shared between various components of the organization and how each of these components has enhanced the efficiency of the disciplinary process in 2009-2010.
