Commissioner of Corrections, Brigadier (Retired) Radgh Mason, is urging Caribbean countries to treat correctional services as a critical component of national security, arguing that effective rehabilitation and reintegration are essential to public safety and national development.

Addressing the 14th Annual Conference of the Association for Caribbean Heads of Correctional and Prison Services (ACHCPS), at the AC Hotel in St. Andrew, on September 7, Commissioner Mason said correctional institutions could no longer operate in isolation from the communities to which inmates would eventually return.

🔥 Training Beyond the Usual Environment | C&R 2026 🛡️

This year, our annual Control & Restraint (C&R) training took officers beyond the usual training environment and into a more open and dynamic setting.

Thanks to the support of the Cayman Islands Fire Service (CIFS), our officers were given access to their training ground, providing additional space to put their skills into practice through a range of practical exercises and scenarios.

C&R training is an essential part of maintaining operational readiness across HMCIPS. It reinforces not only physical techniques, but also communication, teamwork, situational awareness and the use of appropriate and proportionate responses.

Training in a different environment also challenges officers to adapt, communicate and work together effectively — important skills when responding to real situations where conditions are rarely predictable.

Our video provides a glimpse behind the scenes as officers put their training into practice.

A special thank you to our partners at the Cayman Islands Fire Service for opening their training ground to us and supporting the continued professional development of our officers. 🤝

Different environment. Same standards. Always prepared.

His Majesty’s Cayman Islands Prison Service (HMCIPS) is playing a key role in the new Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangement (MAPPA), strengthening how high-risk offenders are managed before, during and following their release into the community.

Acting Director Maxine Spalding and Deputy Director Steve Hansen represented HMCIPS at the signing, alongside Acting Supervisor Keehon Moore.

Through MAPPA, HMCIPS will contribute critical information, risk assessment and pre-release planning to support safer transitions, stronger monitoring and greater continuity between custody and community supervision.

Strengthening the transition from custody to community.
