Mr Dubbey was a highly regarded member of SOCA and played an influential role in the set-up of its centrally intelligence-led tasking and coordination function. He successfully developed counter-narcotic programmes particularly on cocaine incorporating the use of strategic, operational, forensic and media activity to influence outcomes.

These contacts have continued worldwide contributing to significant operational success.

This has incorporated an intelligence understanding of the key transport methodologies and profiles of maritime shipping, sea containers, air courier, fast parcel and vehicle movements in which he has significant expertise.
