Where the Commission is satisfied, on the basis of an enquiry conducted under this Part that —

an offence has been committed, it shall forthwith refer the matter to the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service and the Director of Public Prosecutions together with a certified copy of the declaration in question and a report of its findings.
In any case where the Commission determines that the subject matter of an enquiry under this Part is —
already under investigation by the police whether or not charges have been preferred; or
