Post of Deputy Chief Constable to be filled next year – Mayor Chase-Green

The Mayor and City Council (M&CC) will be looking to fill the position of Deputy Chief Constable in the new year says Mayor Patricia Chase-Green.

“While I know we have difficulties with the promotion of the constabulary department I am talking about the key promotions like the vacant Deputy Chief Constable post and that is the only one we will be discussed at that meeting…the first week in January we will look at it,” the Mayor said.

Her announcement came yesterday during the final statutory meeting of 2017 as she sought clarity from the Town Clerk Royston King regarding the reason for the post remaining vacant more than two years after the last Deputy Chief Constabulary Officer had resigned.
