PM Holness says government is fully committed to having police officers use body worn cameras
Prime Minister Andrew Holness says the government is 100% committed to having body worn cameras being used by the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF).
His comment is in light of recent calls from the Independent Commission of Investigations (INDECOM) for body worn cameras to be used by police especially on special operations.
Speaking today at the graduation ceremony for the second cohort of JCF Inspectors in Kingston, Mr. Holness said body worn cameras will be part of the force but there are steps that must first be taken.
Mr. Holness said the government is committed to improving the technological resources of the police force.
He said it will cost over $1 billion to build out the system necessary for the body worn cameras to be effective.
