Sunday, 26th November 2017

The government in Dominica has announced a review of the island's police service with the intention of assessing the functional services and effectiveness of the law enforcement agency.
National Security Minister Rayburn Blackmoore said that the review would also allow for recommendations for the improvement and strengthening of the Dominica Police Force.
“This review is intended to carefully assess the current functional capabilities of the police force and to determine the way forward,” Blackmoore said on the state-owned DBS radio.
He said the review is being undertaken by a team led by Colonel Jaimie Ogilvie of the Jamaica Defence Force, and that the exercise would cover “among other areas, the current strategic security environment, current structure and capabilities, modern policing functions, and best practices”.
Blackmoore said it will also examine capacity building and capability development, recommendations and associated costs, and an implementation road map.
“This review is intended to [be] transparent, wide-ranging, thorough, and far-reaching,” he said, adding that the team will consult with various stakeholders before submitting a report by the end of January 2018.
