Amendment 29, on the removal of reporting requirements to the provost marshal for serious crime and the substitution of the provost marshal of the investigating service police force, is additionally therefore not required. This part of the clause is about reporting to the appropriate authorities on arrest and, when an arrest is made for a serious offence, notifications to both the provost marshal for serious crime and the other relevant provost marshals are required for deconfliction purposes. The way the clause is drafted ensures that all provost marshals are covered appropriately, as per Section 375 of the Armed Forces Act, which contains the definitions relating to service police.
