Mark Hamilton failed to show at Federation meeting 'due to an unplanned medical procedure'
The body representing rank and file PSNI officers has unanimously passed a vote of ‘no confidence’ in the Deputy Chief Constable.
The Police Federation for Northern Ireland also voted to “express no confidence in the Chief Operating Officer and the Assistant Chief Officer”. “Our Federation is of the collective view that because of his involvement in the decisions concerning the Ormeau Rd incident, and the real or perceived political interference in that process, we can have no confidence in him.
Liam Kelly added: “There was also heavy criticism of the Northern Ireland Policing Board and the manner in which it handled the fall-out from the ongoing crisis and the need for a review of its effectiveness and role, specifically the interference it had in operational decision-making.
