STATEMENT BY GOVERNOR AUGUSTUS JASPERT
ON SECURITY OF THE TERRITORY

The security of the territory is a critical part of its recovery and is something I take very seriously. I am in regular contact with the Commissioner of Police on security matters and this week convened a meeting of all of the agencies involved in this area. Together with Cabinet we are taking forward plans to improve security and these will be explained in detail next week.  Re-establishing streetlights around Road Town Police Station is just one part of that and I am grateful for the UK’s support in funding extra electrical teams to support our efforts here.   Security is everyone’s responsibility and we must all do our bit to keep the territory safe.

His Excellency the Governor
Augustus Jaspert
