The report is based on extensive research and consultation by the Reaearch and Co-ordination Division extending over nearly two years.
It describes the progress which the QPS bas made towards the "Fitzgerald model"; indicates where the CJC considets that a departure from this model has been justified; and identifies those areas where, in the CJC's view, further change is required. The report does not contain a specific check-list of recommendations, as it is the view of the CJC that the QPS itself should determine the timing and precise form of the actions required to address the various issues identified in the review.
However, the report does indicate those areas where the CJC believes the QPS should concentrate its future reform efforts.
