                       PART I - ADMINISTRATION AND NOTIFICATIONS

Sub. No. 1   CARRYING OF FIREARMS TO EVENTS AT THE NATIONAL STADIUM AND SABINA
             PARK BY OFF-DUTY POLICE PERSONNEL

             It has been brought to attention that off-duty police personnel attending events staged at the
             National Stadium and Sabina Park such as football and cricket matches, have been carrying
             firearms into the Stadium/Park and are un-cooperative with Security Personnel on duty when
             directed to comply with the security requirements.

             The security operational protocol governing the staging of such events requires that such
             facilities be kept sterile in respect of firearms, offensive weapons and other prohibited items.

             With immediate effect in keeping with security protocol governing such events, off-duty police
             personnel attending such events must desist from this practice as failure to comply will result
             in strong disciplinary action being taken against them.
