Providenciales, TCI, January 27, 2017 – The United Kingdom has agreed to carry out and pay for a security needs assessment; this comes out of the National Security Council meeting held with the Premier, Deputy Premier, Attorney General, Commissioner of Police, Minister of Home Affairs, Deputy Governor and Governor yesterday.
During the session, which was a scheduled NSC meeting, there was talk about border security and the coastal radar and the dire situation with illegal entry by boat in particular. The issue creates concerns about human, narcotics and firearms trafficking and it appears the Governor agrees. That UK assessment will happen before April, according to the release from His Excellency’s office.
Also discussed at the NSC meeting, resource needs of the TCI Police Force, again… a need to firmly inform the Haitian government of their responsibility to prevent these illegal migrations, again… a renewed commitment to getting a list of undocumented illegals, also again and the unacceptable levels of crime and how a whole of government approach must be taken to thwart increased instances of crime and violence.
