Sir Ronnie Flanagan, the former chief constable of Northern Ireland who is now a security adviser to the Ministry of Interior, said: "There is a category of officers who are not police officers. "They don't have the full range of police powers but they are in uniform to deal with local issues. It is that kind of officer. "They will not have the power to arrest. They will work with their Abu Dhabi Police counterparts." Community policing in Abu Dhabi was initiated by Sheikh Saif bin Zayed, the Minister of Interior, in 2003. Operations began in 2005. "Right now, we are not covering all areas but we are expanding," said Lt Col Mubarak bin Mehairoum, the acting director of the Abu Dhabi Community Police Department. "We're hoping that, in two or three years, we will cover all Abu Dhabi areas and all communities. We are concerned about all communities here. "We have to work according to the needs of these communities. Our role is to find out how we can work together, to enhance the trust between us - as police - and them. "The question is, is it correct to hire a local person who does not speak English and get him to work with an English community? Are they feeling safe? What are their needs? We want to ensure they feel safe. "The place might be safe but it's equally important they feel safe." The new community officers will have rigorous training on working with all sectors of society and in a multicultural environment."
