In a media statement, Herman indicated that the discontent concerned the time it takes to buy equipment.

“I am currently in a meeting with the officers addressing their issues and explaining to them that there are no quick fixes to our problems,” the Director of Corrections stated.

He disclosed that Home Affairs Minister Dr. Virginia Albert-Poyotte had established a review committee to evaluate the BCF’s operations.
