The Po­lice Ser­vice Com­mis­sion (PolSC) has launched an on­line sur­vey to gath­er pub­lic feed­back on the per­for­mance of the Trinidad and To­ba­go Po­lice Ser­vice. 

The sur­vey will as­sess the pub­lic's views on how well the po­lice re­spond to their safe­ty and se­cu­ri­ty con­cerns.

Run­ning from Tues­day, Sep­tem­ber 17 to Tues­day, Oc­to­ber 8, 2024, the Pub­lic Trust, Con­fi­dence, and Sat­is­fac­tion Sur­vey is part of the Com­mis­sion's ef­fort to mon­i­tor the ef­fec­tive­ness of the Com­mis­sion­er of Po­lice and Deputy Com­mis­sion­ers.

This was dis­closed via a me­dia re­lease is­sued by the PolSC on Mon­day.

Ac­cord­ing to the PolSC, "Pub­lic par­tic­i­pa­tion in this sur­vey is crit­i­cal in shap­ing a po­lice ser­vice that meets the na­tion’s needs."

The sur­vey is de­signed to be ac­ces­si­ble, tak­ing no more than ten min­utes to com­plete. 

To reach as many cit­i­zens as pos­si­ble, the Com­mis­sion has part­nered with var­i­ous or­gan­i­sa­tions to make the sur­vey avail­able on­line and through so­cial me­dia plat­forms. QR codes will al­so be pro­vid­ed for easy ac­cess via smart­phones.

Re­spon­dents will re­main anony­mous. All in­for­ma­tion gath­ered will be treat­ed con­fi­den­tial­ly and will not be shared or dis­cussed pub­licly.
