Government To Maintain Crime-Fighting Strategy Beyond State Of Emergency

With the nationwide State of Emergency set to end on September 17th, Homeland Security Minister, Roger Alexander, is assuring citizens that Government has a broader strategy in place to tackle crime beyond the emergency measures.

Minister of Homeland Security, Roger Alexander, says law enforcement visibility will remain central to Government’s crime-fighting efforts after the State of Emergency expires later this month.

“You will see more police in your face. You’ll see more police, you can relate to police officers and members of the Defence Force. It is not always about enforcement, enforcement but also they are used to de-escalate things that are happening in a neighbourhood before it reaches the point of where we have to investigate a crime.”
