Manitoba Police CommissionPolice Boards
The duties of police boards are covered under Division 2 of The Police Services Act. The purpose of a police board is to provide civilian governance respecting the enforcement of law, the maintenance of the public peace and the prevention of crime in the municipality. Police boards are also required to provide the administrative direction and organization needed to provide an adequate and effective police service in the municipality. The police board works closely with the Chief of Police to help implement strategies and allocate funds. There are currently 12 municipalities with police boards in Manitoba. You can contact your municipal police board through their Chairperson.
