Build the foundations of a more effective and accountable police service

Through the Timor-Leste Police Development Program, the Australian Federal Police are helping to build policing skills and education levels within the East Timorese Police Force (PNTL).

TLPDP developed the PNTL's capability to indepently deliver the following training in preparation for the 2017 Elections:
- First Responders Training to 152 PNTL members
- Command, Control and Coordination (C3) Training to 155 PNTL Members
- Election Theme C3 Desktop Exercise to PNTL Executive.

This resulted in the PNTL providing peace and security during the election period.
TLPDP implemented the Prosecutions Liaison Officer Netowrk in 2014. Since initiation there has been significant improvement in the management and finalisation of investigations. In 2014, 4000+ investigations were outstanding, now reduced to a manageable level.
