>"Time, and a bit of crrreativity, will deal with them, Admirrral. Forrr some we will simply wait until theirrr tourrr comes to and end, and simply not offerrr them a new slot. Forced rrretirrrement so to speak. Otherrrs, will have to be dealt with in morrre crrreative means. Trrransferrrs to administrrrative or supporrrt roles will be arranged. Still otherrrs can be 'rrreforrrmed' with intensive trrraining. Those that can not or will not be rrreforrrmed will fall into otherrr categorrries, which may include earrrly rrretirrrement prrrogrrrams. Of courrrse they will have to be apprrroved by the Federrration Council." M'Rrenn added.
They were the same ideas she'd had, of course, but the scope of it still made her awestruck at how much hell this would play with the budget. The Council were not going to be happy when they saw the numbers. "How soon arrre we talking about enacting these things? Operrration Open Arrrms, forrr instance. SpecOps has prrroblems, everrryone herrre knows it. Until we can get enough qualified people trrrained to fulfill ourrr mission prrroperrly, we could surrre use the help of local special law enforrrcement teams. Those SWAT teams could rrreally make the differrrence in some places, if I had authorrrity to ask them forrr theirrr assistance in potential joint operrrations. Given the state of affairrrs and what we, meaning Starrrfleet Command, arrre about to do, we might need them. If local fiefdoms of corrrupt Starrrfleet officerrrs turrrn against us, those law enforrrcement guys might be ourrr best bet to hold the line along with SpecOps teams until loyal Fleet forrrces arrrived, if things got squirrrely." This would be a gods-send, if she could get into it right away.
