MINISTER of Home Affairs Clement Rohee yesterday announced the decision that has been taken to divide police divisions A, B, C, D, and F into community policing divisions. This was done following consultations with the groups in the divisions, the community policing executives and the police. The new divisions are as follows:
*         A Division – A1 (Georgetown) and A2 (East Bank Demerara),
*         B Division – B1 (West Coast Berbice), B2 (Lower Corentyne) and B3 (Upper Corentyne)
*         C Division – C1 (Unity to Good Hope), C2 (Good Hope to Conversation Tree) and C3 (Unity to Abary)
*         D Division – D1(West Coast Demerara) and D 2 (West Bank Demerara)
*         F Division – F1 (Bartica) and F2 (Lethem)

The Home Affairs Minister said that this new arrangement would allow community policing executives and the police to have a better span of control and consequently, greater supervision over the groups. This would also aid in providing a higher quality of leadership in the groups.
Additionally, divisional and national elections were conducted across the country in 2013 for divisional executive committees and national community policing executive committees. New office bearers have also been elected and installed.
At present, there are 266 active Community Policing Groups (CPGs) across the country with a total membership of 4424.
