Macpherson, Mr DW to ask the Minister of Police
With reference to his replies to questions (a) 1432 on 6 June 2016 and (b) 3602 on 13 October 2015, when will he ensure that the detective division at the Sebenza Police Station in Gauteng receives additional personnel in order to reduce the high number of cases each detective currently investigates from 63 to the recommended 40 to 45 case dockets?
Reply:
The recommended personnel strength for the Sebenza Police Station Detective Service according to the Fixed Establishment is 17. The actual personnel strength of the Detective Service is 19. The Sebenza Police Station Detective Service is over capacitated.
