After more than six months of waiting, the B.C. government is expected to inform the city of Surrey on Friday what they must do about the future of policing in the city.

Public Safety Minister Mike Farnworth is scheduled to announce the decision at 9:30 a.m. PT.

Farnworth is expected to lay out conditions for the city to meet in order to proceed with its policing future.

“This is one of the most difficult decisions the government has had to make. It is a very complicated issue and there has a significant amount of work that has gone in to it,” Farnworth said.

“The key issue is public safety not just for Surrey, but the entire province.”
