51. If it is represented to a Governor that an officer
whose pensionable emoluments exceed £200 per annum
has been guilty of misconduct, and the Governor is
of opinion that the misconduct alleged is not serious
enough to warrant proceedings under Regulation 42,
with a view to dismissal, he may cause an investigation
 to be made into the matter in such manner as
he shall think proper.

If as a result of such investigation and after considering
 anything the officer may desire to urge on
his own. behalf the Governor is of opinion that the
allegation is proved, he may inflict such punishment
upon the officer by way of fine or reduction in rank,
or otherwise, as may seem to him just.

Any such punishment shall be immediately reported
to the Secretary of State and the report shall be accompanied
 by a statement of the offence, the evidence in
support, and such observations as the officer has made
or desires to make. The Secretary of State may
approve, vary, or remit the punishment.
This regulation is without prejudice to any local
law or regulation providing for the summary punishment
 of officers by the Governor or the head of a
department.
