Commissioner of Police (ag) Nigel Hoppie has disclosed that the appointment of two civilians to head the Guyana Police Force’s new Corporate Communications Unit (CCU) was in keeping with recommendations made by United Kingdom (UK) consultants following a visit here in 2019.
“…The appointment is in keeping with the recommendations from a PR [Public Relations] consultancy report that was done by some consultants…..There were several recommendations made but I am certain that one of the recommendations would have been that civilians occupy the upper echelon of the public relations department,” Hoppie said while addressing questions during the recently launched “Police and You” radio programme, which was broadcast last Tuesday.
