Bermuda Police Operating on 15 Yr Old System
During a press conference yesterday, Shadow Minister of Public Safety Michael Dunkley revealed that the Bermuda Police operate on a 15 year old computer system, and called it inadequate.
Senator Dunkley said the need for an modern system is “urgent” and called for an upgraded computer system saying that:
A new computer system can provide instantaneous, integrated information to help Police better manage deployments, track criminal activity, trace weapons and individuals, respond to incidents, and share information.

A new computer system is an essential policing tool. Steps should be taken to get one in place as soon as possible.
