The Parliament of the Republic of Fiji and the Fiji Police Force recently signed a Memorandum of Agreement that entails the provision of security services at the Parliament precincts.
Secretary-General to Parliament, Jeanette Emberson and the Commissioner of Police Brigadier-General Sitiveni Qiliho signed the agreement whereby the Force will ensure the protection of the Speaker of Parliament and the Members of Parliament.
The Force will provide security and protection services within and around the Parliament precincts during Parliament sitting weeks, Parliamentary Standing Committee public consultations, site visits or meetings whether within the Parliament precincts or at a designated venue outside the Parliament precincts.
The parties have entered into the agreement with goodwill towards each other and primarily for the purpose of bridging the security gap for the Parliament.
