At today’s Resources Committee, Policing Board Members condemned the negative and racist online commentary following the launch of the PSNI Recruitment competition.
Committee Chair Trevor Clarke MLA said:
“Policing must be reflective and representative of the community it serves, and the Board fully supports the PSNI campaign and outreach work being undertaken to encourage applications so that the Service is fully representative of the diversity of our community.
A strong message must be sent that racism in any form is not acceptable and must be called out.”
