(1) The Managing Director shall have the power to request information and reports on any existing or proposed investigation conducted by the Board. The Managing Director may at any time, stating the specific and detailed reason(s) in writing to the Board and to any complainant(s), witness(es), and police officers directly involved in the complaint, terminate, circumscribe or otherwise limit or prohibit, the Board's discretion in conducting any particular investigation or in utilizing any particular power of the Office of Managing Director in such investigation. In the absence of any such directive, it shall be presumed that the Managing Director authorizes all steps taken by the Board in the course of its investigation and hearings.

(2) Upon formal written notification and specific request to the Board, in interests of justice, from any court of competent jurisdiction, a federal or state grand jury, district attorney, or other authorized officer, agency or body, the Board, in such circumstances as they may be simultaneous actions by the Board and such other investigatory agencies or bodies, shall consider suspending such specific aspects of its investigation until such time as the criminal investigation of such specific aspects by the requesting agency or body has been concluded. The Board, in evaluating such request, should examine the specific and good faith nature of the request, the issue of the need for timeliness of the investigation, the interests of justice and other factors it may deem appropriate. As a condition of such suspension request, the requesting agency or body shall inform the Board regularly, and not less than monthly, of the status of its investigation and notify the Board at the conclusion of such investigation; provided, however, that in the event of a grand jury proceeding, all Federal or State Grand Jury Secrecy Rules shall apply. Nothing in this Chapter shall be construed to prevent or hinder the investigation or prosecution of any individual or any member of the Police Department for violations of law by any such agency or body.
