message: Shouldn't there be a link here about cautions upon arrest under PACE code C s10.5 et al?
It's just that with the similar terminology I think it would make things clearer for the non-lawyers Tybalt 00:49, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm not convinced about some of the facts here:
# I know someone that received a police caution whilst under 17. This was about 15 years ago. Has the law been changed on this?
# I know that the PNC keeps records of offences for 10 years, i.e.: if you ask for a Records Check, a caution up to 10 years ago will show up. Essexmutant 17:14, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

message: For the benefit of the Yanks:  Do UK subjects have the right to appeal a police caution, especially one that remains on a person's record, to a judicial authority (as opposed to an executive one like a police force, or at least the police forces of the American model)?
Thanks!

thread_title:  any right to appeal? 

message: "cautions (including reprimands and warnings) are covered by the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 so will become spent immediately (apart from conditional cautions which will become spent after 3 months).[8] Simple cautions normally expire after 5 years whereas conditional cautions expire after the designated conditions are met."
So are they spent immediately/after 3 months? Or are they spent after 5 years/after the conditions are met? This section is contradictory - hopefully someone with the requisite knowledge can fix this.90.196.178.187 (talk) 07:50, 20 October 2012 (UTC)

message: People are often interviewed 'under caution' when they have not admitted any guilt. Does this represent a different category of caution from the ones identified in this article? Valetude (talk) 18:49, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
