Call for Submissions - JSC National Security - Organized Criminal Gangs

7 Jan 2021

The Joint Select Committee on National Security has commenced an inquiry into the Strategies to Combat the Prevalence of Organized Criminal Gangs in Trinidad and Tobago, with a special focus on measures to identify vulnerable youth and intervene early. 

Essentially, the Committee will consider: 

1. The role of National Security Agencies in combating organized criminal gangs;
2. Measures to prevent the recruitment of vulnerable youth into criminal gangs;
3. Whether remand experience fosters criminality and gang recruitment; and
4. The reintegration into society of persons who were in conflict with the law.

What are your views on these issues?

The Committee invites your written submissions.

Please send your submissions on or before Friday January 22, 2021 Thursday February 4, 2021 at 4:00 p.m. by email to:
