In which scenario must an officer report to the commission?

An officer must report to the commission when they leave their current agency to ensure that the commission maintains accurate and up-to-date records regarding the status and affiliation of law enforcement personnel. This requirement is crucial for maintaining public trust and accountability, as it allows the commission to monitor active duty officers and their conduct.

When an officer changes agencies, it signifies a transition that can impact their credentials and qualifications. This reporting helps the commission track the professional history of officers, ensuring that those who are no longer serving under a specific agency are appropriately removed from active lists and that the integrity of the overall law enforcement system is upheld.

While promotions, additional training, and changes in contact information are important updates in an officer's career, they do not carry the same mandatory reporting requirement as leaving an agency. Reporting such changes is usually managed internally within departments and does not necessarily require a formal notification to the commission.
