Police force using private contractors for maintenance of vehicles

Although the Guyana Police Force transport workshop is responsible for the maintenance of the force vehicles, private contractors have been identified in each policing division for repairs and servicing.

A police source, who did not want to be named, told this newspaper that the force’s transport workshop, located at Eve Leary, deals with the servicing and maintenance of all vehicles owned by the police.

However, the source informed that in an effort to ensure the maintenance of vehicles, the force has designated private contractors for each division to attend to any mechanical problems encountered by force vehicles.
