This new batch of officers will bring the Metro Police team to just over 600 members.

JP Smith, mayoral committee member for safety and security, said the trainee constables would be appointed in January.

Smith said successful applicants would complete an 18-month training course at the metro police training college, after which they would become constables.

Smith said “it is encouraging to see the number of people that applied; we are planning to see as many applicants on all likelihood for the final positions that will be assessed in the final week of December”.

Smith said he was impressed with the quality of the applicants, but it is sad that the city can only accommodate the 32 there is vacancy for.
