    John Hogan says it’s important for the public to know and understand what police are doing.

    As the Corner Brook RNC expansion is set to be complete by the end of this month, Justice Minister John Hogan says it’s important to have a good line of communication between police and the public. In the past, the Corner Brook detachment had a designated person for media relations, but now that position is based out of St. John’s by Cst. James Cadigan. Hogan says it’s a question he will bring to the committee. He says it’s important for the public to know and understand what police are doing.
