In the letters, Commissioner of Police Ian Queeley, wrote ‘On behalf of the High Command and on my own behalf, I wish to extend heartfelt congratulations on your confirmation. I look forward to your continued positive contribution to the growth and development of the organisation.’

Commissioner Queeley stressed the important role of SPOs within the Police Force.

“They are a very integral part of the functioning of the organisation because they are the buffer between management and the Constables.
