Have cuts to the police force helped fuel the current crime wave being experienced on the Island?
According to the Chief Minister the answer is no - despite policing levels having fallen to those last seen in the mid-1990s.
Since January 9th there have been 21 reported burglaries and attempted burglaries - with the culprits still at large.
Allan Bell says he doesn't think recent changes to the frontline service are responsible:
Among the changes are a reduction in the number of officers working in the neighbourhood teams and changes to how the Island is policed at night - despite this Mr Bell says the situation is still under control:
