How well does the Saint John Police Department do its job?
The results of an audit done by the Provincial Department of Public Safety have been released at the monthly meeting of the Police Commission. City Police were found to be 100 per cent compliant with provincial policing standards.
Chief Bill Reid, while pleased with the results, says there's always room for improvement with quality assurance reviews when it comes to high risk operations.
The audit also commends the police department for how it makes do in facilities at City Hall that are inadequate for policing.
This was the first meeting of the Police Commission since the murder back in July of businessman Richard Oland at his office on Canterbury Street. No one has been charged and the Chief made it abundantly clear to reporters "There would be no update".
