The Home Affairs Ministry is looking to establish a Critical Incident Response Team (CIRT) to address cyber attacks as continued emphasis is being placed on equipping the Guyana Police Force with modern resources to fight crime, Minister Clement Rohee says.
Delivering the feature address at the closing ceremony of the Senior Officers Training Programme yesterday, Rohee said that with the rapid technological development that has been taking place worldwide, Guyana has to adapt to meet the challenges this brings. Those developments have not been ignored, he said, as his ministry has been promoting the computerising of the force among other things. “Let me warn that a computer illiterate man or woman has no place in the modern police force,” he said adding that the present construction of a modern forensic laboratory is also part of the aim to get the force up to par.
He said the ministry is also continuing to work on legislation
