These broad objectives are guided by a mission that is premised on a commitment to serve, protect and reassure. As reflected in its organizational statement, its overarching mandate is “to provide the highest quality police service in partnership with our community to ensure a safe and stable environment.” The Force’s style of management is heavily influenced by a hierarchal structure and a paramilitary approach to discipline and operational procedures. In its embryonic and early developmental years, the Force had an operational staff of approximately one hundred and forty men and no form of motorized transport. Today, the operational strength of the Force is over one thousand male and female officers who are supported by a civilian staff of approximately two hundred. A range of policing services are now provided through the use of technology, foot patrols, a motorized fleet, a mounted corp, a maritime policing element and aerial support from the air wing section of the Regional Security System. The Force also benefits from its alliance with international agencies such as the Federal Bureau of Investigations, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Scotland Yard, INTERPOL and the International Association of Chiefs of Police. In 1997, the Royal Barbados Police Force became the first law enforcement entity in the English speaking Caribbean to achieve international certification by the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA). The Force maintains full membership with the Association of Caribbean Commissioners of Police and the Regional Security System. Page 3 of 89 ROYAL BARBADOS POLICE FORCE ANNUAL REPORT 2013 The maintenance of its professional image, its commitment to high ethical standards and a firm recognition in the value of public trust is deeply rooted in individual adherence to the following CORE VALUES Respect for We recognise that officers will on a daily basis become involved in numerous Human Life and varied human encounters and when warranted, may use force in carrying out their duties.

The submission of this annual report, not only satisfies an administrative requirement as imposed upon the Commissioner of Police, but also provides a comprehensive review of the performance of the Force in 2013. In 2013, the Royal Barbados Police Force was again entrusted with the responsibility of detecting and preventing crime, enforcing applicable laws; crime and traffic management; and the general maintenance of law and order. A natural response to this broad mandate was the development of a mix of policing initiatives that were informed by the Strategic Plan for the period 2011- 2014. No Annual Policing Plan was developed for the year under review. However, policing initiatives were designed to focus on core areas such as crime management, community engagement, road policing and human resource management. Policing environment The work of the police was conducted in an external environment characterised by factors such as a continuing depressed economy, pockets of industrial unrest, preparations for local general elections, tensions that were occasioned by a Government imposed reduction in the staff of the public service and the continued fear of crime. Of equal import is the fact that the internal policing environment was impacted by factors such as limited physical and human resources, the continued impact of an ageing physical plant, continued lag in the development of organizational capacity to fully exploit modern technology and the effect of the absence of a full suite of supporting modern legislation. Page 6 of 89 ROYAL BARBADOS POLICE FORCE ANNUAL REPORT 2013 Policing was directed at a population of approximately 280,000, with a resulting police to population ratio of 1:512. Strategic direction At the beginning of the year the strategic command and direction of the Royal Barbados Police Force was again entrusted to Commissioner of Police Darwin Dottin, with support coming from a Senior Command Team that comprised a Deputy Commissioner of Police, four (4) Assistant Commissioners of Police and a Chief Financial Officer. The work of this strategic grouping was expected to be supported by one thousand, four hundred and eighteen (1418) sworn police officers, ninety-three (93) Parish Constables and a civilian staff of three hundred and thirty-seven (337) persons. Undoubtedly, the most significant event that affected the Force was the placing of Commissioner of Police Darwin Dottin on Administrative Leave, by the Governor General, acting on the recommendation of the Police Service Commission on June 17, 2013. Although the Force was never provided with details of any specific allegation of wrong- doing, the official reason given by the Police

Unless otherwise specified, all sums are quoted in Hong Kong dollars.) 1935 The principal figure in this case, a police detective sergeant, joined the force as a messenger and became a constable the following year. 1941—1945 He left the force and started running businesses on the Mainland. In 1945, after the war was over, he rejoined the force. 1956 He was promoted to sergeant, and became station sergeant of Yau Ma Tei Police Station, a post he held until his early retirement. August—December The Anti-Corruption Branch—then an arm of the police 1968 force—began to investigate his very extensive assets. He was twice interviewed and asked to account for his wealth. He claimed that it derived mainly from his wartime business activities. Once all possible avenues under the law as it then stood had been explored, the investigation necessarily ground to a halt.
