00:00The Trinidad and Tobago Police Service Social and Welfare Association says it has no concerns
00:05about the recent shake-up at the executive level of the TTPS. President Gideon Dixon says the TTPS
00:11has been undergoing a transformation and the reshuffling is just par for the course.
00:18None of the DCPs reached out to us and it is between the commissioners remit and that of
00:24the Police Service Commission, if it is, they have strategic goals that needs to be achieved
00:32and to try to get the right fit in so doing. So from that perspective, change is the only
00:42constant because those who hold the office now weren't always there and they were given
00:50the opportunity to hold the office and evaluation has taken place or is taking place and there
00:56is move or there is need for change to be able to evaluate again and compare results and we
01:03move forward. As an organization, I think that is the direction in terms of how business models
01:09should operate.
01:11And also weighed in on Senior Superintendent Wayne Meister being sent on leave, noting that
01:17he too was recently sent on leave.
01:21So the association doesn't have any concerns?
01:25We don't have any at this time. None wasn't expressed to us and we are fully cognizant that
01:32from time to time, because of the amount of leave restrictions officers would have been given
01:40over the last five, six years, a lot of leave have been accumulated by officers. Coincidentally,
01:46they call me for a paper to send me on leave. And the record would show that I, when they
01:53call me for that, to send me on leave, I already applied to go and leave. So there was just
01:58a gap in communication, but it is customary.
02:01How in the day?
02:03It's not very common.
02:03I think that I can't do that.
