Control Act” currently before the National Legislature.

Fromayan said when passed into law, the Commission will have the legal clout and be more effective in carrying out its mandate of monitoring the movement and control of small arms in the country.

Appearing on the ELBC ‘Supper Morning Show’ on Monday, he pointed out that it would be prudent were the Legislature to enact the legislation before it closes for its annual break this year.

Meanwhile, Fromayan has disclosed plans for the Commission to establish four regional offices across the country to beef up efforts by the Liberia National Police and other state security apparatus in monitoring and controlling the movement of small arms and light weapons within Liberia following the UNMIL drawdown.

He, however, stressed the need for sufficient budgetary support to LINCSA as the current allotment of US$450,000 in the 2015/2016 Fiscal Budget is inadequate to fund its operations.
