141. (1) A special constable may resign that special constable’s appointment at any time by giving one month’s notice in writing to the Commissioner, but the Commissioner may waive the provisions of this subsection regarding the period of notice to be given.
The Commissioner, subject to such consultation as may be necessary under section 129 in relation to the appointment of the special constable concerned, may terminate the appointment of a special constable whose services are no longer required, and shall forthwith give notice of the termination in writing to the special constable concerned.
A special constable shall, within one week of that special constable’s resignation or of the receipt of the notice terminating that special constable’s appointment under subsection (2), deliver up at the time and place and to the person stated in the notice of termination, or to one of that special constable’s senior officers, that special constable’s identity card and all arms, equipment, clothing and appointments whatsoever which have been supplied to that special constable under this Act and which are the property of the Government.
An ex-special constable who, having ceased to belong to the Special Constabulary, fails without good cause to comply with subsection (3) commits an offence and is liable on summary conviction to a fine of one thousand dollars or to imprisonment for six months, or to both.
