Foreign Affairs Minister Brantley stated via social media “I wish to publicly congratulate Commissioner of Police Ian Queeley. He is young, dynamic and a people person.

I also wish to congratulate the other members of the High Command but let me single out Deputy Commissioner Hilroy Brandy from Nevis and our first female Assistant Commissioner Mercelyn Hughes.”

Hon Brantley went on to state that the make up and diversity of the High Command is what had been demanded of a New UNITY Government which saw members from all political parties coming together for the good of the nation

“Now this Unity government campaigned that we can and will do better than that which was. Today we have a highly trained Kittitian as Commissioner. Today we have a Nevisian as Deputy Commissioner. Today we have a woman as Assistant Commissioner. All talented and dedicated law enforcement professionals. St. Kitts is in the mix. Nevis is in the mix. Women are in the mix. Fair share for ALL,”  Brantley stated.
