There is still no update on when Saint John Police Force officers will be equipped with body cameras.
Last July,
the force announced it would spend $770,000 over five years to equip all front-line officers with cameras.
The new technology was expected to be rolled out in November, but
“They’re not rolled out yet,” Chair Ed Keyes said during the monthly Saint John Board of Police Commissioners meeting on Tuesday when asked for an update.
“They won’t be rolled out until all of the policies are in place and approved for them.”

One member of the Saint John Board of Police Commissioners says it is time they become more accessible to the public.
Coun. Gary Sullivan said he wants to see documents like police force budgets, policies and meeting agendas posted online.
Sullivan said they discussed publishing many of these documents in the past but the suggestion was made to wait until the city’s new website was up and running.
“The City of Saint John now has this beautiful, multi-functional website up and running and I think it’s time for us to take advantage of that,” Sullivan said during Tuesday’s police commission meeting.
