Vancouver police has formally accepted majority of the recommendations made for rectifying policing service, that were proposed by the commission of Wally Oppal, after leading a completely investigation into the missing women case last year. It will be officially announced in an administrative report, scheduled to be made public on Tuesday by police board on Tuesday, as Chief Const. Jim Chu will declare that VPD are fully committed to implement dozens of recommendations made in the report.
Apparently, the force has held up to numerous recommendations, including the one which suggests formation of a new regional police force for Greater Vancouver. Other recommendations upheld by the VPD include the appointment of advisors including an aboriginal elder for discussions during settlement processes, external "equality audits" of B.C. police forces in reference to the protection of aboriginal and other vulnerable women from violence. Additionally, the force is anticipated to implement the setting of a provincial standard for non-discriminatory policing, along with a creation of a statutory provision on the legal "duty to warn" the public about threats to safety, and about police forces working with community groups for effectively implement a duty to warn.
Furthermore, some of the recommendations are endorsed for the provincial government fund research on vulnerable populations as witnesses including judicial bias, drug/alcohol dependency and involvement in the sex trade, creation of a protocol stemming from that research that officers undergo sensitivity or anti-oppression training and "make prevention of violence against aboriginal women a genuine priority."
