The Nevis Island Administration (NIA) has reiterated its commitment to support the Police in every way, including the provision of the necessary assistance to help them perform their duties effectively.
Premier of Nevis Hon. Joseph Parry along with other Cabinet members, met with senior Officers of the Royal St. Christopher and Nevis Police Force, Nevis Branch, on July 10 to discuss crime on Nevis.
Minister Parry, who also holds responsibility for Security in the NIA, said that the matter was an important one that needed to be addressed.
