577W
§ Mr. CabornAlthough the normal retirement age for Metropolitan police officers is 55, they may be granted annual extensions of service up to the age of 60 subject to the satisfaction of certain eligibility tests. An officer in the Royal Parks Constabulary who is 58 or over at the time the RPC is merged with the Metropolitan Police Service (which of course depends on the passage of the appropriate legislation, which has not yet been brought forward) will be considered for attestation as an MPS officer on this basis.
