194.Section 59 ensures that, where members of the Constabulary are seconded to other police forces with the agreement of the respective chief officers, they shall have the same powers and privileges as members of the force to which they are seconded. This mirrors arrangements that already exist between other forces, but from which the Constabulary has thus far been excluded.
