“The maritime capability of the Royal Solomon Islands Police Force has been boosted with the commissioning of the new Guardian class patrol boat, 05 GIZO during a ceremony in Honiara today.
“The RSIPV GIZO is a gift from the people and government of Australia to the people and government of Solomon Islands.
“The new patrol boat will certainly enhance the RSIPF Maritime capability. It will enable the RSIPF to support its key partners including the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources, Forum Fisheries Agency (FFA), Solomon Islands Maritime Safety Administration (SIMSA) under the Ministry of Infrastructure Development, Immigrations Department of the Ministry of Commerce, Labour and Immigration, Customs & Excise Department of the Ministry of Finance and Treasury, and the National Disaster Management Office (NDMO) who have traditionally worked in collaboration with the RSIPF Maritime.”
