MR BRIAN WEBSTER, DEPUTY DIRECTOR, CRIME, SAID TRAINING OF OFFICERS IN THE FORCE' IS NATURALLY A VĚRY IMPORTANT FACTOR IN PERFORMANCE. IN THE COMMERCIAL-CRIME BUREAU TRAINING OF AN. INTERNAL NATURE HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE FOR SOME TIME.

''OVER THE YEARS MR MALCOLM FARNHAM, CSO/CCB, HAS CONSTANTLY IMPROVED ON THE TRAINING AND HAS HONED IT TO A POINT WHERE I CONSIDER IT IS NOW AS COMPREHENSIVE AS NEED BE AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME.

''THE COURSE CONTENT COVERS THE EXTENSIVE RANGE OF SKILLS MOST NECESSARY TODAY TO THE INVESTIGATOR OF FRAUD AND I AM OF THE VIEW, THIS WILL KEEP THE COMMERCIAL CRIME BUREAU VERY MUCH TO THE FORE- FRONT IN THE FIGHT AGAINST THIS TYPE OF CRIME.!!
