The board is chaired by a Deputy Com­mis­sion­er of Po­lice. It al­so com­prised an As­sis­tant Com­mis­sion­er of Po­lice, the di­rec­tor of hu­man re­sources of the Po­lice Ser­vice, a se­nior of­fi­cial from the Min­istry of Na­tion­al Se­cu­ri­ty, se­lect­ed by the min­is­ter and an in­de­pen­dent man­age­ment con­sul­tant, ap­point­ed by the com­mis­sion­er. The bill states: "The com­mis­sion­er shall en­gage a per­son who is not a po­lice of­fi­cer as sec­re­tary to the board. The ap­pro­pri­ate recog­nised as­so­ci­a­tion may nom­i­nate a rep­re­sen­ta­tive to be present as an ob­serv­er at sit­ting of the board." The bill said at the end of each sit­ting the ob­serv­er would be asked to make com­ments on the pro­ce­dures, which would then be filed with the sec­re­tary of the board.
