By Dale Andrews ?“For example you have an Inspector being promoted above 30 Inspectors who would have acquired that status before him, and the question must be asked,Cheap Jerseys From China Outlet, why?”The Police Service Commission (PSC) is moving to end the culture of supersession in the GuyanaPSC ChairmanOmesh SatyanandPolice Force. It remains on track to finalize the much anticipated list of promotions by the end of next week.This issue of supersession and other discrepancies, which have delayed the announcement of the list traditionally done at the beginning of the year, have been clarified.The Police Service Commission is responsible for the promotion and disciplining of ranks from Inspector to Assistant Commissioner of Police.The PSC had identified a number of discrepancies on the list of persons recommended for promotions. This list was belatedly submitted by the Guyana Police Force. Its submission has led to some sometimes acrimonious exchanges between the two parties over the past month.Commission Chairman, Omesh Satyanand, said that the issue of one officer superseding his senior is of great concern.He said that from looking at the seniority list of the Guyana Police Force as against the recommended list of promotions, it was recognized that there were a number of persons who were recommended for promotions above persons who are senior to them. This, he said, occurred at different levels.“You need to justify why you’re promoting someone over someone else who is in the same rank for a longer period. That is something that we thought we should examine carefully,” Satyanand said.A number of persons have suffered through this type of administration of justice.Some ranks have waited years and in some cases decades before they are promoted and while some stuck it out, others became frustrated and left the Force.The PSC Chairman explained that the Commission would normally peruse the files of persons recommendedPaul Williamsfor promotion and this should give some guidance as to their competence to move up another level.This includes whether they would have passed the required examinations to become officers.According to Satyanand, this year’s promotion list was filled with incidents of supersession and while some of them could be justified, many cannot.“For example you have an Inspector being promoted above 30 Inspectors who would have acquired that status before him. The question must be asked, ‘why?’ Is it exemplary performance; yes,Air Max 90 Black And White Mens, we accept that but it must be justified,” the PSC Chairman stated.There are reports that certain favoured officers were recommended for promotion above others who are senior to them.This newspaper was reliably informed that one officer who is currently serving on the East Coast of Demerara, is being pushed to supersede several of his seniors.Among the other major discrepancies discovered by the PSC was a person being recommended for promotion although he was on retirement leave. Then there were persons who did not pass the required examinations. There was also the question of persons on the list who had pending disciplinary matters.The delay in the approval of the senior promotion list has been the cause of much anxiety among all ranks of the Force and it had led to a blame game being played as to who was responsible for dampening the morale of policemen and women.The PSC Chairman explained that the list of recommended promotions is normally submitted by theMaxine GrahamForce in October, which would allow for the Commission to peruse it and interview the officers in a timely manner.He said that this was not done, and it was only after the Commission wrote to the Commissioner of Police in December last year requesting the list, that it was finally sent on December 14.This did not give the Commission enough time to go through the list, given the number of discrepancies unearthed.“We should not be begging the Commissioner for the recommendations. He’s responsible for the Force, the development and day to day operations, and he is to ensure that ranks who perform outstandingly should be recommended to move to the next level; that is the Commissioner’s responsibility,” the PSC Chairman said.Satyanand said that the process to come up with a final promotion list that is favourable to all is on stream, since the body has been able to look at some of the discrepancies identified, and the positive feedback from the Commissioner of Police to its queries.VacanciesHe explained that promotions are not only confined to the beginning of the year; it can be done at anytime once the vacancies arise.“Promotion is in keeping with the vacancies.
