Senior Superintendent Shavon Jupiter, in brief remarks, praised the ranks for their punctuality and discipline. She highlighted the importance of maintaining a polished appearance, noting that hairstyles and other elements of personal presentation should evolve in line with contemporary professional standards.
During the inspection, several officers were recognised for their exemplary compliance with dress regulations and will receive incentives for their efforts. Dr Kendall further encouraged officers to actively participate in the association’s initiatives, particularly during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, stressing the importance of community involvement.
