Date:

BY ALICE T CAMPBELL

The Royal Solomon Islands Police Force (RSIPF), in partnership with the Ministry of Police, National Security and Correctional Services (MPNSCS), completed a three-day consultation workshop to review Police Act 2013 and identify areas for reform.

Held on April 15, 22, and 23 at RSIPF Headquarters in Honiara, the sessions brought together RSIPF leaders, senior government officials, and representatives from several ministries.

The workshop focused on addressing operational challenges and ensuring the legal framework remains effective for modern policing, a statement from the MPNSCS yesterday said.

Permanent Secretary of MPNSCS, Karen Galokale said the consultation reflects a shared commitment to strengthen the law, enhance accountability, and build public trust in policing.

Recommendations from the workshop will inform the formal review process and proposed amendments to the Police Act, the statement said.

The ministry plans to expand consultations nationwide following the completion of a comprehensive legal review report.
