Attorney General Dale Marshall says he has no intention of engaging in a tit-for-tat with outspoken Opposition Senator Caswell Franklyn about a decision which has led to Barbados having two deputy commissioners of police.

Last week, in a statement to the media, the Protective Service Commission said Assistant Commissioner of Police Oral Williams had been appointed Deputy Commissioner.

Erwin Boyce has been serving as the Deputy to Commissioner of Police Tyrone Griffith.

The promotion of Williams saw a swift response from Franklyn, who described it as ultra vires.

But Marshall, Government’s chief legal advisor, isn’t about to challenge Franklyn. (BA)
