You are absolutely right. However, I suggest you send what you have now to CIO with an explanation letter. Then be ready to issue new ones once CIO requests it. I believe that CIC/CIO are rational and would understand that such delays are beyond your control.
Send this PCC to CHC, you do not need to apply for new PCC. The 3 months count from your date of application received by CHC. Assuming that you applied in July you are still with in 3 month window. Also since your PCC is dated 20 July 2011 it is another reason for CHC to consider it

I applied for police clearance on 12th May 2011; however I did not receive it till late July so I sent my application.
Now I have got the police clearance; it reads as "No adverse record from birth till 12/05/2011" and dated on 20th July 2011.
Please let me know whether I need to apply for another police clearance since from which date they count 3 months.
