Where is the mandate for community policing found?

• A. Ministry of the Solicitor General
• B. Ministry of Education
• C. Provincial Parliament
• D. City Clerk's Office

Answer: (A)

Community policing is guided by the government body responsible for policing and public safety. That ministry develops policing policies, supports police services, and builds partnerships with communities to implement those strategies. In this structure, the mandate for community policing sits with the Ministry of the Solicitor General, which oversees police oversight and public safety. The other options don’t carry that responsibility: the Ministry of Education focuses on schools, the Provincial Parliament is the law‑making body rather than the implementer of policing programs, and the City Clerk’s Office handles municipal administration and records.
