A national forensic services laboratory in Antigua and Barbuda <\/a><\/strong>is steadily taking shape, with full operations expected by the end of 2026, according to Attorney General and Minister for Public Safety, Sir Steadroy Benjamin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Antigua and Barbuda Forensic Services (ABFS) is part of government efforts to enhance law enforcement and reduce reliance on overseas facilities for forensic analysis.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Speaking in an interview with ABS, Sir Steadroy said critical legislative work and equipment procurement are still required before the lab can be fully functional. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

However, he confirmed that a draft bill to support the lab\u2019s operation will be tabled in Parliament before the end of October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMr. Tabor prepared the draft. We looked at it and we\u2019re satisfied that we are now ready to have it going forward,\u201d he said.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Attorney General emphasised the significance of the forensic facility in helping the Royal Police Force of Antigua and Barbuda solve crimes more swiftly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAntigua has got the lowest rate of serious crimes in this part of the hemisphere, and we intend to maintain that record,\u201d Sir Steadroy said. \u201cBut we think we can solve crime more rapidly if we had a forensic department which could do the work that other countries now do on our behalf.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Currently, forensic evidence is often sent to laboratories in Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, and the United States. The new facility will eliminate the need for these external services.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In addition to passing the legislation, the government is expected to focus on specialist training and acquisition of advanced forensic equipment in the coming months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sir Steadroy called the initiative a step forward in cementing Antigua and Barbuda\u2019s role as a regional leader in policing and crime prevention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis little country, Antigua and Barbuda<\/a><\/strong>\u2014we\u2019re small, but we\u2019re talawa<\/em>,\u201d he said, using a Caribbean term meaning resilient or strong. \u201cWe have led the region not only in policing but in other aspects of crime prevention and detection, and we want to maintain that record.\u201dCLICK HERE TO JOIN OUR WHAT\u2019S APP GROUP<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
