Ms Éimear Fisher:

Having looked at other police forces, it is not necessary to have new leadership to have cultural change. In New Zealand and Australia, where there has been significant cultural change across very complex and very challenging cultural issues, it was the incumbent, sitting police commissioner who drove the change. What is necessary is a clarity of the vision in relation to the culture that is required and either a restatement of the values that are there or, at least, a rebranding of them. There should be a clear focus and a clear plan, which I believe is included in the modernisation and reform plan, to deliver that.
