Pierre Receives Crime-Fighting Strategy From New CoP (Ag)

Prime Minister Phillip J Pierre, the Minister for Justice and National Security, has confirmed receiving a crime-fighting strategy from the new Acting Commissioner of Police (CoP), Verne Garde. Garde’s appointment is initially for six months. “This morning I wish to inform you that I have received from the acting commissioner of police, the police force crime prevention strategy for the period September to March 3, 2025,” Pierre announced at Monday’s regular pre-cabinet press briefing. “I have just received it and I will be going through it and having a discussion with the commissioner of police and the high command on the strategy,” the prime minister said while holding up the document. “Having said so and as we deal with that strategy I want to say to all those concerned that we should watch the rhetoric as it comes to crime,” Pierre stated.
