A new Gazette notification is expected to be issued soon, fully empowering the Inspector General of Police (IGP) with authority over transfers and promotions of senior officers within the Police Department.
According to current information, this official notification is likely to be published within the coming week.
Until now, the Police Commission has held the power concerning the transfers and promotions of police officers. However, with the issuance of this new Gazette, those powers previously held by the Police Commission will be entirely vested in the IGP.
This change is expected to directly impact the administrative and management affairs of senior officers in the Police Department, and as such, it has already garnered significant attention.
