The Royal Virgin Islands Police Force promoted 3 of its officers, to the Superintendent rank, as a result of recommendations made to His Excellency, The Governor by the Police Service Commission and ratified by the National Security Council.
Selwyn Rock and Dariel Robinson were promoted to the rank of Superintendent in charge of Territorial and Operations Divisions respectively, effective immediately, after they have been acting in the post for the over a year. Paula Alleyne was promoted to Superintendent in charge of Crime Division but will continue to act in the post until the substantive promotion takes effect on July 15th, 2023.
Commissioner of Police Mark Collins, while congratulating the officers on their confirmations to their new substantive rank, encouraged remaining officers to prepare themselves for upcoming promotions.
“The RVIPF takes pride in being able to grow our numbers not only at the bottom with new recruits, but at the top as well, thus opening opportunities for other officers to move up in rank. We have now confirmed three Superintendents, which would make way for promotions to the Chief Inspector rank, for which the process is being finalized. I urge all who qualify to prepare themselves for possible advancement.”, Commissioner Collins noted.
