PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC – The Police Social and Welfare Association (PSWA) Tuesday said it is “more worried now” regarding the move by the coalition People’s Partnership government to precept soldiers into the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS). The PSWA met with National Security Minister Austin Jack Warner and the leader of Government Business, Dr. Roodial Moonilal, to discuss the Defence Force Amendment Bill which the government intends to use as one of the planks in the strategies to deal with the rising crime situation here. “The ministers put forward their position, we put forward ours. That is how the meeting proceeded. I don’t think that the minister’s position dominated by way of argument, but I think at the end of it, we would not have been able to change his mind,” said PSWA president Anand Ramesar.
