The FCO, through its Overseas Territories Programme Fund (OTPF), supports projects that contribute to the maintenance of stability and security as well as the promotion of accountable government. The main focus of OTPF expenditure in Anguilla is devoted to enhancing the capabilities of the Law Enforcement Agencies, including the prison service and the police. Recent projects have included funding the secondment of three UK police officers to assist the local police force in tackling the rise in crime; scene of crime training; providing an evidence collecting vehicle; installing computerised immigration and customs facilities at the ferry port; installing a CCTV and security system at the prison, and management and development for senior prison managers.
Anguilla benefits from DFID-funded regional OT projects and emergency aid in the event of a natural or man-made disaster.
