Minister Tackling affirmed her commitment to ensuring the crime fund policy plan is submitted as required by law.

Another significant topic discussed was the urgent need to finalise and implement the long-overdue Criminal Procedure law book, which Roseburg said is essential for modernizing and enhancing the justice system.
