And while the ComPol says he happily surrendered responsibility for license approvals, will he soon be giving up his post?

Last week he said that he wasn't "preparing to leave" as one media house had reported. But in a conference meeting, he told his officers, along with the Minister and the CEO, quote, "I don't think I will be here much longer." We asked him what he meant by this today, and whether his successor will be a woman.

Chester Williams, Commissioner of Police
"It's what your interpretation of what 'much longer' means, much longer could be a year, could be two, could be three, it's your interpretation. Much longer doesn't have a definition to say it is within a month, two or three or four months, it does not say that. You take things for good news."

Courtney Menzies:
"Would you recommend Ms Sandra Bodden, is she being looked at, do you know?"

Chester Williams, Commissioner of Police
"Ms Bodden, Mr Jones, Mr Rosado, and even some of the ACPs that we have are very capable and competent people. We also have Ms Anderson, she's very in tune, in touch, well knowledgable and so forth, we do have some good people that can be considered yes."
