The Chatham-Kent Police Services Board has congratulated the team that implemented its Blackberry program while a key government official suggests a number of other police services will soon be moving in a similar direction.

John Dimarco with the Correctional services told the board a key to using the devices is both its portability, and the fact that is secure.

He says a number of municipal police services “and the OPP are already looking at this.”

Dimarco says the province likes the program because it keeps front line officers in touch with more information at all times.
