 The governor announced this week the appointments of Colin Farquhar as Commissioner of Police in succession to Commissioner Edward Hall and Brad Sullivan to succeed Deputy Commissioner Hubert Hughes.
In a statement Feb. 25, H.E. Governor Gordon Wetherell said the two officers, both with over thirty years of policing and leadership experience in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, will take up their appointments in March following a period of familiarisation and briefing from their predecessors. Immediately prior to taking up this appointment Colin Farquhar was the Police Advisor at the Permanent Mission of Canada to the United Nations in New York. His international policing experience also includes serving as the Deputy Police Commissioner for Operations and Monitoring with the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) where he was responsible for the oversight and daily management of approximately 1,500 United Nations police officers from 44 different countries. Brad Sullivan has thirty three years of policing experience in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police most recently with the Halifax District RCMP, Halifax, Nova Scotia where he was responsible for the day to day operations of the Integrated Criminal Investigation Division, managing 140 personnel in numerous units including Homicide, Sexual Assault, Fraud, Drugs and a Criminal Analysts section. The governor said he is grateful for the assistance provided by Canada's Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade through its Anti Crime Capacity Building Program to support these placements. The governor also thanked Commissioner Hall and Deputy Commissioner Hughes for the significant contributions that they have both made to the policing of the Turks and Caicos Islands during their careers and wishes them both well for the future.
