Please may you provide me with all information with regard to procedures for instigating vote of no confidence by members in the PFEW organisation and or individual members of the Chair or Vice chair.

Responded: 15 March 2021

The Police Federation of England and Wales can confirm that there is no written procedure for a vote of no confidence.

The process to engage a Vote of No Confidence would be for a current Board Member (supported by a second) to propose a No Confidence paper to the Board and for that matter to be discussed and vote on.  While the mechanism exists, it does not mean that the elected official need stand down.
