p. 10 · Read in the full issue
When self-government comes to Papua New Guinea on December 1, the country will control its police force —which is now under Australian government control.
But there are likely to be import ant changes in the organisation of the force. There are plans to estab lish a para-military division of the police, able to handle serious in ternal disorders and border sur veillance and thus avoid the neces sity of Papua New Guinea having to call out the Army on civil con trol problems. Experienced Pacific Island Regiment men may be in vited to form the proposed new police division.
