COMMISSIONER OF POLICE - SUPPORT PROVIDED BY TWO BRITISH OVERSEAS TERRITORIESs.

The Governor’s Office has reported that Commissioner of Police, Robin Hall, has been unexpectedly delayed in the UK due to unforeseen operational policing matters.

In his absence, the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service and the Royal Gibraltar Police are extending their support to Montserrat, providing qualified personnel for the role of Acting Commissioner.

Roje Williams from the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service is expected to arrive on island early next week for a period of three weeks.

Mr Alex Enrilles from the Royal Gibraltar Police will then take over and will be on island for a few months.

The recruitment campaign for a new Deputy Commissioner continues following the move by Mr Charles Thompson to Immigration.

Her Excellency The Governor, Sarah Tucker, says she wishes to thank the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service and the Royal Gibraltar Police for their support.

Governor Tucker says this is a another example of co-operation and joint working between Overseas Territories and both officers are very welcome.
