Discipline: A contributing problem to high level of absenteeism might be the fact that morale of members at the station was low. Members at the station did not have respect for their seniors. The Committee attributed this to the complaints that certain people were promoted although they did not deserve promotions. There was a member who had only a standard eight as a qualification, but he was promoted, while a black woman member who had a masters' degree was reporting to him. There was also a member who was being counselled for absenteeism, and the Committee expressed its dismay at this.
