Defence Police Federation
The Defence Police Federation (DPF) is the representative body of Ministry of Defence Police (MDP) officers, up to and including the rank of Chief Superintendent. There are around 2000 members as of 2014. Membership is restricted by law to serving officers. MDP officers have their own federation because they are also part of the Civil Service and are accountable to the Secretary of State for Defence, and not the Home Secretary. Moreover, MDP officers have different terms and conditions of service to their Home Office counterparts. Officers' pay is directly linked to national settlements made by the Home Office and the Police Federation of England and Wales.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Defence Police Federation )〕 The DPF also administer the Defence Police Retired Officers Association.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Defence Police Retired Officers Association )〕 With an 'all armed' membership, the DPF maintain close ties with the Police Firearms Officers Association and as of 1st October 2014, all DPF members have automatic membership of the PFOA at no extra cost to the member.
==History==
Prior to 1971 each of the three armed services had its own constabulary, with its own Chief Constable. Each of those constabularies had its own staff association. To boost their bargaining power these three staff associations formed a Federal Council in 1953, but this arrangement was found to be unsatisfactory and in 1971 the associations agreed to form a single Defence Police Federation.〔
The new federation believed that the Ministry of Defence's three police forces should be amalgamated into a single, unified force. It argued that amalgamation was the only way to realise the potential of the three forces and enhance their officer's professionalism. Even before the formation of the Defence Police Federation, the individual Defence constabularies' staff associations' had fought against the notion that their members should receive an abated rate of pay. In 1971, the MoD agreed to amalgamation and the Ministry of Defence Police was formed.〔
The next landmark in the history of the MDP was also, to an extent, the result of the federation's efforts. Ever since the establishment of the force in 1971, the federation had campaigned for an Act of Parliament to replace the maze of regulations, statutory provisions, and instructions on which the MDP's legal authority was based. The federation believed that such an act would enable MDP officers to discharge their duties more easily and enhance their credibility as police officers.〔 On 5 May 1987, the Ministry of Defence Police Act came into being. It solidified the force's constabulary powers and gave full legal status to the federation, putting it on par with the representative bodies of other police forces.〔http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1987/4/contents〕
