Abstract
In addition to outlining the operations of Field Services A, B, and C, the book focuses on investigations, services, and other operations. The three branches in the Special Investigations Division concentrate their efforts on fraud, murder and serious crime, and human vices. Services of the Ontario Provincial Police include the Policy and Planning Branch, the Program Evaluation Branch, the Information Services Branch, the Creative Services Section, the General Information Unit, and the News Bureau Section. Change emerges as the only constant for the Ontario Provincial Police. Computers provide the key to technological innovation in the 1990s and beyond.
