7 Oath or affirmation of office for police officers

(1) The form of the oath required to be taken by a police officer under section 13 of the Act is as follows:

I,, do swear that I will well and truly serve our Sovereign Lady the Queen as a police officer without favour or affection, malice or ill-will until I am legally discharged, that I will cause Her Majesty's peace to be kept and preserved, and that I will prevent to the best of my power all offences against that peace, and that while I continue to be a police officer I will to the best of my skill and knowledge discharge all my duties faithfully according to law. So help me God.

(2) The form of the affirmation is the same as the form of the oath, except that:

(a) the words "solemnly, sincerely and truly declare and affirm" are to be substituted for the word "swear", and

(b) the words "So help me God" are to be omitted.
