answer text <p>The UK is committed to the promotion of respect for International Humanitarian Law worldwide. The UK continues to monitor the humanitarian situation in Western Sahara, and remains concerned about the humanitarian situation facing Sahrawi refugees in the camps in Tindouf, which the UK provides humanitarian assistance to via our contributions to UN bodies such as the World Food Programme. The UK has consistently supported Security Council Resolutions which note &quot;with deep concern the continued hardships faced by Sahrawi refugees and their dependency on external humanitarian assistance, and further noting with deep concern insufficient funding for those living in Tindouf refugee camps and the risks associated with the reduction of food assistance&quot;.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Constitutionally, national security is a reserved responsibility. Operational policing matters, including recruitment, is the responsibility of the Commissioner of Police who is appointed by the Governor. The new Commissioner of Police took up post in April 2024 and is driving forward an active recruitment campaign to build capability and capacity. The FCDO has continued to provide support to the Royal Turks and Caicos Islands Police Force (RTCIPF) funding a team of privately contracted specialist serious crime investigators since 2022. The FCDO increased support to the RTCIPF this year, with five extra investigators and four firearms officers currently in territory. The FCDO are also supporting the RTCIPF through a variety of specialist training (including investigations, use of force, data and intelligence) and additional equipment to support efforts to combat serious crime (including new capabilities on digital forensics, body-worn cameras, drones and radar CCTV).</p> more like this
