The PSNI’s oversight body met behind closed doors for most of Thursday
The selection process for the next Chief Constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland is to complete in November.
In a press conference on Thursday evening, Ms Toner said recent board meetings have not been held in public due to the sensitive nature of what was being discussed. Vice-chair of the board Edgar Jardine said “yes” when asked if the assistant chief constables were “currently in charge”. “At this time, we also appreciate that police officers and staff at all levels across the organisation continue to deliver an essential public service to the community and deserve everyone’s support.”
Ms Toner said the “authority gaps” within the force need to be addressed and were discussed on Thursday, but that public commentary on confidence in individuals on the service’s senior leadership team “is not endorsed by the board”.
