    After allegations of a West Yorkshire police constable offering money in exchange for sex on a mobile dating app, Police officials have been obliged to hold a misconduct hearing.

    The officer, who has not been named, appeared before a misconduct hearing this week accused of discreditable conduct.

    A spokeswoman for the West Yorkshire Police said the decision not to publish the officer’s name “in this case has been made by a legally qualified chair”. However a ruling was passed in 2016 which states all misconduct hearings must now be made available to the public.

    The police website has published the details of the case which confirmed that whilst using a mobile based dating application the officer asked another user it they wished to participate in sexual activity in exchange for the payment of money and further later identified himself as a police officer. The charge was proved and the officer received a final written warning.
