Strengthening National Security and Community Safety
Securing Air and Sea Borders
Safe communities require effective management of our borders. TCCP will enhance border security to prevent illegal contraband and unauthorised individuals from entering the Cayman Islands by:
- Installing advanced screening technologies including state-of-the-art cargo scanners, drug-detection systems, and AI-driven facial recognition software at all entry points
- Expanding maritime surveillance by deploying drones and unmanned patrol vehicles, and investing in radar solutions
- Increasing collaboration with regional partners for joint patrols and intelligence-sharing on trafficking routes
Safer communities
Preventing crime and deterring dangerous or antisocial behaviour ensures residents can feel safe in their homes, on the streets and in their neighbourhoods. TCCP will enhance safety by:
- Expanding community policing to tackle local crime and gang syndicates
- Implementing additional traffic calming measures to make our roads safer for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians
- Increase street lighting where needed to promote safety and deter crime
- Expanding neighbourhood watch groups
Building resilience
In the long-term, we must better prepare the Cayman Islands to meet the risks of an unpredictable world by:
- Attracting and promoting local talent in law enforcement and border control through education and mentorship opportunities
- Strengthen food security through sustainable agriculture, education and support programmes
- Strengthening our emergency response and hazard management teams and infrastructure to prepare for heightened risk of natural disasters and climate change
- Facilitate prison upgrades
Decriminalising Marijuana
We are prepared to research and implement a policy that responsibly decriminalises specific small quantities of defined types of marijuana.
Upholding the rule of law, increasing our self-reliance and mitigating risk in an unpredictable world creates stability and enhances unity in our community.
