B.C. Premier David Eby says that he has spoken to Surrey Mayor Brenda Locke about the ongoing policing issue between Surrey and the state government.

The NDP government has recommended that the ongoing transition from RCMP to municipal police in Surrey be continued.

But Mayor Brenda Locke says she and her council are in favor of keeping the RCMP.

Locke says her council will review the state government's recommendation on policing, but they want to move forward with their plan to keep the RCMP.

Eby says his government is ready to work with the City of Surrey to find a solution to this issue as soon as possible.
