PUBLIC ORDER

151

The services of 18 officers and 173 men were lost through death, retirement, resignation or dismissals during 1981. A number of recruitment exercises were held resulting in the appointment of 40 officers and 520 firemen and ambulancemen.

In view of various recruitment difficulties experienced and the large number of current vacancies to be filled, a new system for recruitment was introduced. Since September 1981, the recruitment campaign became a continuous all year round effort. The campaign attracted a total of 828 applications for officer posts, 1 752 for fireman posts. Standards required for both grades are high and on average only about 10 per cent of all applicants are accepted for appointment.
