1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,280 Speaker 1: Joining me in the studio right now is the Northern 2 00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: Territory Police Commissioner Michael Murphy. 3 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 2: Good morning to you. Good morning Katie now, Commissioner. 4 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: Before I get into the issues of the day, and 5 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 1: there is a lot to get through, I do want 6 00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:14,640 Speaker 1: to just ask you. I've literally just learned that Northern 7 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:18,279 Speaker 1: Territory Police are calling for information after an armed burglary 8 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 1: in Darwin overnight. At about twelve forty five this morning, 9 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: police received reports at two males and a female unlawfully 10 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 1: entered a residence on dash would place, armed with a gun. 11 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's great, Katie. So there was three people and 12 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,159 Speaker 3: at a unit there was a fifty seven and a 13 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,239 Speaker 3: sixty one year old occupant. They've threatened them with a 14 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 3: shotgun and left the premises. We don't have the gun yet, 15 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 3: we don't know who the three people are. We've got 16 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:50,200 Speaker 3: detectives currently working on it incredibly hard. We have deemed 17 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 3: it's a low public safety risk and we suspect that's targeting. 18 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: But I mean in the pressure release it says at 19 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: this stage it's not believed the offenders were known to 20 00:00:58,400 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: the victim. 21 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 3: So I think they're working through that to validate that 22 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 3: now we've got some detectives working on that. We're hoping 23 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 3: for a fairly quick and swift clear up. 24 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: So hang on, so have still I mean, are we 25 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 1: in a situation right now where we have got two 26 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: males and a female to the gun who are on 27 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:14,400 Speaker 1: the loose somewhere. 28 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 3: That's correct? Ya? 29 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 2: Is that? 30 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: I mean that sounds quite concerning, I think to anybody 31 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 1: listening this morning. 32 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 3: I've spoken to the Assistant Commissioner of Crime this morning 33 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 3: who spoken directly with the detectives. They've obviously previd information 34 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 3: that I'm not, but I've asked specifically what is the 35 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 3: risk to public safety and advise that it is low. 36 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 3: It's deemed low. They will work very quickly to identify 37 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 3: who these people are. We've got some technology in the 38 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 3: area where the fence could that will help us with 39 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 3: the investigation and we'll clear this up pretty quickly, as 40 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: we do with all the other crime times. But this 41 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 3: is being treated very seriously. 42 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: Well, Commissioner. It does sound like it's bloody serious. 43 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: I mean, we've got somebody who's on the loose, So 44 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: we've got three people on the loose with a firearm. 45 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: To me, that sounds incredibly frightening water assurances can you 46 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: give the public this morning that they're not at risk? 47 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 3: Look, I'm relying upon the information coming from the detectives, 48 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 3: and I've been very specific and my questioning to the 49 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 3: Assistant Commissioner, and I've got a level of confidence that 50 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 3: the public are not at risk, and we'll identify who 51 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 3: these people are and in the efforts of the investigation, 52 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 3: recover the firearm. But there's no need to be alarmed. 53 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 3: We've got detectives working on this and we're resolve it 54 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 3: as quickly as we can. 55 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: Okay, there's going to be people listening this morning thinking 56 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: why are we just learning about this now when it 57 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 1: happened at twelve forty five this morning. 58 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,519 Speaker 3: I guess it's because we want to get the correct 59 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 3: information out to the public as well. It is pretty 60 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 3: swift to get it out this morning, but the detectives 61 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 3: have to speak to witnesses, consider the time of night, 62 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 3: look at initial inquiries, assess the risk, and then we 63 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 3: you know, we have moved fairly quickly to get their 64 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 3: message out. 65 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: All right, Commissioner, I'm going to move along because there 66 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: is so much for us to cover off on this morning, 67 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: and we will no doubt stay on top of this 68 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: issue that we've become aware of this morning. With these 69 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: three people are still out at large at this point 70 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: in time. With the firearm, we will certainly stay on 71 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: top of that and no doubt your team will let 72 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: us know if there's any updated information. But look news 73 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: breaking this morning that the Anti Independent reporting that the 74 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: Police Minister Brent Potter has shared Facebook posts which have 75 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: now been deleted, in which he's reportedly quoted Nazis Vladimir 76 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: Putin well in some instances many would deem the post racist. 77 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: According to the report, the extensive series of posts included 78 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: far right sentiment between twenty thirteen and twenty nineteen, which 79 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: appeared to see shortly before he was employed as an 80 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: advisor to the former Deputy Chief Minister Nicole Madison. Now 81 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: I've not seen all the posts. I've seen some of them, 82 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: but I mean we're hearing this, of course, on the 83 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: back of a week last week where there was claims 84 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: made in the Coronial Ink Quest by Northern Territory Police 85 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: Constable Zachary Rolf of systemic racism within the Northern Territory 86 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: Police Force Commissioner. First off, have you seen those posts 87 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: by the Police minister. 88 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 3: No, I haven't. I'm aware of the article, but it's 89 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 3: not appropriate for me to comment on the article at 90 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 3: this time. 91 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: I do want to ask so. 92 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: I mean, on Monday, the Chief Minister, Evil Laula said, 93 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: I'm concerned about it does worry me about racism. We've 94 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: seen that across the world that there is a strong 95 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 1: right wing element around not being accepting of different people, 96 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: and in the territory that is one of the absolute 97 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: assets of this place is having such a diverse population. 98 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: Are you concerned that we may have people entering the 99 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: Northern Territory police force or entering high level jobs that 100 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: do have quite right wing, very very right wing views. 101 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 3: I think that's been to a vetting process as well. 102 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 3: I think I'm going back to your other point. I 103 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 3: think we are very to be lucky in the Northern 104 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 3: Territory with the fabric of culture and the diversity of 105 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 3: many cultures and First Nations people and other people that 106 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 3: we can understand culture and we're actually quite protective of 107 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 3: that and we build really good relationships with them. I 108 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 3: think that's the really important part in the territory. We're 109 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 3: quite lucky. We do see the emergence of right wing 110 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 3: thinking and ideology and all sorts of different thinking. In 111 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 3: the advent of social media and global events where people 112 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 3: will comment on things happening around the world, and you 113 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 3: know people, you know, the people on Facebook or other 114 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 3: social platforms make comment own it and we see people 115 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 3: that are influenced by it. That is a concern for us, 116 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 3: and that's actually a national discussion even in law enforcement 117 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 3: and intelligence to assess risk to community. And we're lucky 118 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 3: in the Northern Territory that's not that prevalent. 119 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: I mean, there is going to be people thinking this 120 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: morning that, you know, after the comment's made last week 121 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: in the coronial and then after these posts that I 122 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: know they're historic but have been shared by the police minister, 123 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: that we may have a situation where you've got really 124 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,239 Speaker 1: very right wing us seeping into the police force. 125 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 3: Look, I don't think so. I think we're impartial, we're professional. 126 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 3: We've got really good relationships with the community. Going back 127 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 3: to the coronial and the testimony of Zachary Rolf and 128 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,799 Speaker 3: there's a number of revelations. There was the one about 129 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 3: the TG and the awards that's been referred to. That's 130 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 3: a joint investigation with the IKAK and our Professional Standards Command. 131 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 3: That's underway at the moment. In saying that too, you know, 132 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 3: when the court of history sets in judgment of us, 133 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 3: are they going to judge us on our courage and 134 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 3: our respect and our integrity? Of course, so we've got 135 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 3: to think about what we're doing now to future brief 136 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 3: the police to make sure it's as safe, are culturally 137 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 3: safe and a culturally competent police force, but to look 138 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 3: after our offices and also look after our community. 139 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 2: Is it appropriate that the Northern Territory Police Force? 140 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: Yes, I know the ika's also involved in that investigation, 141 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: but is it appropriate that you guys are investigating yourselves. 142 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 3: There's a level of independence when our Professional Standards Command 143 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 3: a high level of confidence with their capability and with 144 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 3: oversight and involvement of the IKAK. I mean that's unquestionable. 145 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 2: Where are things at with that investigation, it's underway. 146 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 3: I'm not privy to it. I'll leave that up to 147 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 3: the Commissioner for IKAK and Professional Standards Commander Police Commissioner. 148 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: There's going to be people listening this morning that read 149 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: the front page of the paper on the weekend after 150 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: it was reported that you are allegedly the person who 151 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: made racial slurs in a Chinese restaurant, which former Constable 152 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: Zachary Rohlf was referring to at that coronial inquest, Commissioner, 153 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: did you make racial slurs? 154 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 3: To be honest, I can't remember about making any comments racially. 155 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 3: I'm not a racist person. 156 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 2: I mean, is that a cop out? 157 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 3: I don't think so. No, it's the truth. And you know, 158 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 3: I can't start making things up to say it happened 159 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 3: or it didn't happen. I just have to rely on 160 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 3: my memory. It's quarter of a century ago, you know, 161 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 3: and appropriately got referred to the IKAK. He's done an inquiry, 162 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 3: he's written a letter back to the coroner. He's shared 163 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 3: that with me on his assessment over the inquiries he's undertaken. 164 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 3: And the thing is that you want to understand it. 165 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 3: Where we're at now is my job and as the 166 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 3: Commissioner of Police, is to make sure we have a 167 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 3: really culturally appropriate workplace that serves a very culturally diverse community. 168 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 3: So we need to get on with the job and 169 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 3: make improvements we've got. Our indigenous workforce is hurting after 170 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 3: the common shoef of last week. Historically, a snapshot. You 171 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 3: talked about systemic racism. I don't think we've got systemic 172 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:34,079 Speaker 3: racism in the human form across the police force. We've 173 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 3: got really hard working people who are committed to public 174 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 3: safety and looking after each other. I'm really committed to 175 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 3: looking after the workforce, our people who work tirelessly, the 176 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 3: community and the future of the Northern Territory Police Force. 177 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 3: I think it's really really important to be aware that 178 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 3: you know that we may have systemic racism, institutional racism 179 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 3: as far as our policy settings and barriers for people 180 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 3: with diverse backgrounds that we need to challenge and reform 181 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 3: to make sure that I've set an aspirational target that 182 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 3: thirty percent of the community of the Northern Territories abergeon 183 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 3: on Torrestraight Islanders. We've only got thirteen percent representation in 184 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 3: the workforce, So I need to set an aspirational target 185 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 3: to make sure the police force is representative of the 186 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 3: people we serve. 187 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: Police Commissioner, what action is going to be taken though, 188 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: if this investigation into offices allegedly making racist comments and 189 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: having that racist award within well what was claimed was 190 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: a racist award within the TRG is found to be accurate. 191 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 3: Well, that's a matter for the Commissioner, Nayakak and Professional 192 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 3: Standards Command who will do the appropriate referrals based on 193 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 3: the collection of evidence in their assessment. That's probably too 194 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 3: early to look at what type of penalty exists, or 195 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 3: I think we just need to be impartial, let an 196 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 3: investigation run and search for the truth. 197 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 2: Police Commissioner. 198 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: At the moment, you know, there's so many people that 199 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: are really looking to the police and are so grateful 200 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 1: right for the work that you guys do. Lo even 201 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 1: myself earlier in the week, you go this like there 202 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: is so much going on in the community that people 203 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: are really unhappy with. But then when you hear these 204 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: claims made and then you know, even when you read 205 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: this article this morning, you think their looks like there 206 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: is a big gap that needs to be breached between 207 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: the community and our Northern Territory Police Force for us 208 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: to move forward. 209 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 2: How do you do that? 210 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:20,839 Speaker 3: I think we need to be courageous, We need to 211 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 3: challenge the way we do things and how we think, 212 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 3: and we need to be inclusive. We have that. We 213 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 3: went through a really hard time since two thousand and nineteen, 214 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 3: but we've got really strong bonds with the community. We 215 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 3: work incredibly hard for the community. We are the community. 216 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 3: We don't underestimate the amount of work we have to 217 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 3: do to continue to repair relationships and reform the police 218 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 3: force in community engagement and not reactive where you know, 219 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 3: we're looking at so many different aspects about diversification and 220 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 3: challenging current thinking. We do have a lot of work 221 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 3: to do. Absolutely, but and going back to the point, 222 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 3: like I can't acknowledge the hard working office is enough. 223 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 3: I mean, they are incredible busy. We haven't had any respite. 224 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 3: It's just every day there's events occurring, whether it's youth, 225 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 3: whether it's social order, whether it's road fatalities. We're incredibly busy. 226 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 3: And you know, they work incredibly hard, tirelessly, sometimes sacrificing 227 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 3: their time with their family to bring closure to events 228 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 3: like we'll see probably with the unlawful entry with the 229 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 3: firearm this morning. They'll be working incredibly hard to bring 230 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 3: this to a conclusion, to reassure the public we've got this. 231 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,199 Speaker 1: Do you think that these claims that have been made 232 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks have been damaging to 233 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: the police. 234 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,839 Speaker 3: Absolutely, yes they have. And my job and the job 235 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 3: of the team and the entire police force is to 236 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 3: nurture the police force, to make sure they're okay and 237 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 3: reassure them. Keep us focused on the positives and what 238 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 3: we need to do to reform, but continue to build. 239 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 3: We've got great relationships and I'm mindful that the cronial 240 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 3: process is still alive. But this is a story from 241 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 3: twenty nineteen, proceeding that we've done an incredible nearly five 242 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 3: years ago. We've done an incredible amount of work to 243 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 3: reform the police force, and we're still doing that work now. 244 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: All right, Police Commissioner, I want to move along to 245 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: some of the issues that are absolutely concerning Territorians at 246 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 1: this point in time. I spoke at length about it yesterday, 247 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: that crime series at Casarina and in the city which 248 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: occurred on Monday. 249 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 2: I mean reports that an eighty one year. 250 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: Old woman was allegedly rolled by three yearths, one of 251 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: them seven years old. Are we seeing a real decrease 252 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 1: in the age of kids offending? 253 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 3: No, no, we're not. So it's disgraceful to see a 254 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 3: seven and eleven and a thirteen year old attack a 255 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 3: eighty one year old woman and take a bag. That's unacceptable. 256 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 3: They are armed with a knife. We are seeing in 257 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 3: the younger cohort more violent offending. The knife review show 258 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 3: that knives weren't that prevalent in youth, but we've got 259 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 3: the wanting powers and that preventative powers are beginning us 260 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 3: in certain places try and preemp that stuff. 261 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: People are going to be scoffing at the radio right 262 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: now hearing that knives aren't prevalent within the youth, when 263 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: then you know, almost daily we're hearing about youths holding 264 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 1: people up well, threatening people with knives. 265 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,680 Speaker 3: I probably should correct that when the review was conducted, 266 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 3: historical data didn't present that bet By. You are correct. 267 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 3: We are seeing young people that are armed with a 268 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 3: range of knives, screwdrivers, weapons, and we're trying to work 269 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 3: through what that looks like about the association of weapons 270 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 3: as well. So this is bigger issues about trauma and 271 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 3: cognitive learning, and this is where the investment lies in 272 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 3: education and schooling and housing and health. So they're the 273 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 3: big ticket issues that actually need to resolve this. And 274 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 3: we know that domestic violence offending, we see really high 275 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 3: rates of that impacts youth behavior and what they actually 276 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 3: accept as normal or not normal. To behave like this 277 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 3: in public. 278 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: It doesn't give kids the right to run re mark 279 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: and hold people up with knives. 280 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 3: So it does it, It absolutely does not, and you know, 281 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 3: it really concerns me and troubles me and keeps me 282 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 3: up at night. Some of the behaviors we're seeing, we 283 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 3: see later in the day, five years who think it's 284 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 3: okay to come into Darwin City, go into two service stations, 285 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 3: steal from their approach another member of the public, try 286 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 3: and steal their positions. You've been subject to the same behaviors, Katie, 287 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 3: and then go into a licensed premisis and do a 288 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 3: stick up there. But I can I I want to 289 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 3: prevent that stuff from happening, and we need to work 290 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 3: with territory families. But I can commend the CCTV operators, 291 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 3: the Canine General duties and detectives on the swift resolution 292 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 3: to locate, identify, and actually seese cash, weapons and the 293 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 3: stolen property associated with them. But four of the five 294 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 3: are under the age of criminal responsibility. 295 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 2: So they from Darwin? Are they local kids? Are from community? 296 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 2: Where are they from? 297 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 3: I don't know, Katie. I'm sorry, but because to me. 298 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: Like I honestly, you know, I had a kid that 299 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 1: looked like he was my son's ah, my son's ten 300 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: years old. Look me in the eye, they tell me 301 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: he's an f and gangster. And then another one jump 302 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: at me and try and steal a phone. You know, 303 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: like what happened to me is absolutely on the low 304 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: end of offending as far as I'm concerned. I was, okay, 305 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: you know, I'm all right, But I look at that 306 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: and I think, what if a kid does that to 307 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 1: my child and then they've got a knife, or what 308 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: if a kid does that to my mother who can't 309 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: defend herself. And that's how the community feels right now. 310 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, look at it. It concerns me, and we're doing 311 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 3: everything we can to minimize this disruption. We need to 312 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 3: work out we see the rates of recidivism as well. 313 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 3: So this cohort of three plus five, they get referred 314 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 3: to territory families as well, who will research their background 315 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 3: and what measures they need to put in place, and 316 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 3: those you know what it looks like as far as 317 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 3: bail management, whether they get placed into locations for better 318 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 3: control and reform, that's all work that's underway at the moment. 319 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 2: Does education then get notified that they're not at school. 320 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 3: Well, yes they would be because we see these are 321 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 3: ongoing discussions we have around their education attendance. You know, 322 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 3: the rate of people not enrolled in schools versus the 323 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 3: rate of enrolled who don't attend. The ones who don't 324 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 3: attend and not enroll the ones usually coming to our attention. 325 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 3: And I know, I know that Minster Monahan is really 326 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 3: focused on this and the CEO Karen Western. 327 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: They need to be right like they need to be 328 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: what's going on right now. It needs an absolute hole 329 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: of community, whole of government approach. People are so fed up, 330 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: they're so over having to deal with this, and right 331 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 1: now a lot of us feel as though the police 332 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: are like the last line of defense in terms of 333 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: you know, your home's getting broken into, You're feeling like 334 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: you've got no protection of yourself. You're feeling like if 335 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 1: you stand up to somebody, you're going to be the 336 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: one who ends up in strife. 337 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 3: The important thing to remember, as we are involved in 338 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 3: an incredibly reactive environment, we're trying to flip it to 339 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 3: go to the proactive and with the Territory Safety Division, 340 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 3: that's a body of work. As they form and grow, 341 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 3: they will make a difference in the prevention and engagement. 342 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 3: And you know, it's about target management too, and about 343 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 3: making a difference to be in hotspots and locations where 344 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 3: people are believed to be committing crimes. But I need 345 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 3: the community support to you to report crimes so we 346 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 3: can get a picture, a clear picture of crime or 347 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 3: activity or suspicious behavior anywhere. 348 00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 2: Commissioner, I know your pressed for time. 349 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: You've got to get to a press conference, but I've 350 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: got a couple of things i want to get through. 351 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 2: Just on that youth crime stuff. 352 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: Last week, kids allegedly targeting police cars who are on bail. 353 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: Does it worry you that you've got kids being released 354 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: on bail by the judiciary and they're then putting themselves 355 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,400 Speaker 1: the lives of others on the road, you know, other 356 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,360 Speaker 1: people in their vehicles, kids trying. 357 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 2: To get to school, and of course police in danger. 358 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely, the behavior of these young people and the 359 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 3: absolute disregard for public safety and the safety of you know, 360 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 3: and it's been pointed out that school kids will walking 361 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 3: to school at the same time, but putting officers safety 362 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 3: who are enforcing the law at risk is totally unacceptable. 363 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 3: We do our job, we collect the evidence we put 364 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 3: the evidence back before the court for the judiciary to 365 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 3: make a decision. You know, if we're not satisfied with 366 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 3: that decision, we've got avenues to appeal that to the 367 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 3: Supreme Court. 368 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 2: Has there been situations where you have. 369 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 3: Yes, we have. We don't do it all the time, 370 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 3: but it's got to be based. And we have a 371 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 3: conversation with the Director of Public Prosecutions about the merit 372 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 3: of an application because obviously that's quite serious because you're 373 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 3: going to the Supreme Court on a judicial review. But 374 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 3: their matters available to us, and you know, at the 375 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 3: end of the day, when they breach new offending on 376 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 3: new crimes on bail, they will go back to court 377 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 3: and then the judge can make another determination based on 378 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 3: their offending whilst at liberty, and they made a commitment 379 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 3: to court not to do that. So it needs to 380 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 3: be treated really seriously. 381 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: Police Commissioner, how's Alice Springs going from your perspective? I 382 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: mean they're continuously is vision shared from Alice Springs horrifying stuff. 383 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: You know a lot of people there are just absolutely 384 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,959 Speaker 1: at their wits end. We've seen further vision go viral, 385 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: the Spanion sharing a video of Alice Springs, I believe 386 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: saying something along the lines of it's the worst place 387 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: he's ever seen. 388 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I haven't seen that video. I got told about 389 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 3: it as I walked in, but I actually haven't seen it. 390 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 3: I was in Alice on Monday. I've spent a lot 391 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 3: of time in Alice across January and December as well. Look, 392 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 3: we are working incredibly hard. Do the problem still exist. Absolutely, 393 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 3: We've still got youth that are on the street. The 394 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 3: corresponse model work to an extent getting kids off the 395 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,479 Speaker 3: street and identifying what the issues are to get them 396 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 3: in a place of safety. A lot of the times 397 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 3: there's not a place of safety at home. We're seeing 398 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 3: still out off entry is still quite high, but you 399 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 3: know overnight, even the recent past, there's been a decrease. 400 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,679 Speaker 3: But when it's unacceptable people's houses getting breken into, when 401 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 3: their cars are being stolen, then then the cars are 402 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 3: driving erradically and targeting police. So it's still concerning. But 403 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 3: we're still continuing to plan what that looks like and 404 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 3: that probably leads into policing effectiveness and we'll see the 405 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 3: recruitment of the transition of the palis to police constables. 406 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 3: So We've got thirty three of them commencing on the 407 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 3: leventh of March, which is really exciting. In sixteen weeks 408 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 3: a majority of them will return back to our springs 409 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 3: to be constables. 410 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: Is it going to mean, though, that we don't have 411 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: palis on bottle shops? That was the concern that was 412 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: raised by Nathan Finn, the president of the Police Association. 413 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,120 Speaker 3: There'll be a couple of palis remaining that can still 414 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 3: continue to do the bottle shop duties. 415 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 2: Does that literally mean too or how many? 416 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 3: I think we've still got ten in our springs, but 417 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 3: there's only a handful available for deployment. But there's going 418 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 3: to be more planning around mobility and working with licensing, 419 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 3: so licensing inspectors can actually go to the bottle shops. 420 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: So licensing inspectors are going to step in to that role. 421 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 3: Yes, that's all we're working through at the moment. 422 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 2: So are you confident that'll work? 423 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 3: Oh? Yeah, I am. It's about questioning people when before 424 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 3: they put they've got powers under the Act exactly like us. 425 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 3: So it's about just putting that governance in place about 426 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 3: where the consumption of alcohol is. Is it lawful to 427 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 3: reduce harm? Essentially, and you know the work being undertaken 428 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 3: for a more effective BDR and that's really promising as well. 429 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 3: But the alcohol restrictions in our springs still assist this greatly. 430 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was going to be my final question this morning. 431 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: Tourism Central Australia has written to the Chief Minister asking 432 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 1: for a relaxation period or at least a trial I guess, 433 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: or those alcohol restrictions in Ola Springs of rolling them back. 434 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: Do you think that we're in a situation where that 435 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: can even be looked at right now they. 436 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 3: Can be discussed. I don't welcome it. I welcome the 437 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 3: continued districtions in place across the two free days and 438 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 3: the hours training. It definitely offers us respite and controls 439 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 3: the crime narrative as well. Do we say issues with 440 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 3: secondary supply, Yes, and we've got to do a body 441 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 3: of work around that. 442 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: And we are when you talk about some of the 443 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: issues that we've got up here in the top end, 444 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 1: I mean you say domestic violence is the biggest concern 445 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: for Northern Territory police. I mean we see that every 446 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: single day. We talk about it all the time. You know, 447 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 1: there's a case going through the courts at the moment 448 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: where a woman was allegedly stabbed to death and you know, 449 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: at the hands of her partner in a public location 450 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 1: on Freshwater Drive. I mean, this is the kind of 451 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: stuff that we report on so often. I mean, are 452 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 1: are our alcohol laws in the Northern Territory at the moment? 453 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 2: I mean, does there need to be further look into that? 454 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 2: Across the board? 455 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 3: I'm always looking at alcohol laws and what it means. 456 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 3: And it's a lawful product that's regulated. But does it 457 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 3: cause it's the harmonable for us? Absolutely? Then you hit 458 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 3: the nail on the head. Yes, domestic violence, intimate partner homicide, 459 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 3: public places, ol cooco tune is the main risk for us. 460 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 3: The work by the Territory Safety Coordination Center is integral 461 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 3: with the coordination of all patrolling aspects and the whole 462 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 3: of government to address rough sleeping, safety of people, returning 463 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 3: people to country and minimizing those associated harms and controlling 464 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 3: that risk. 465 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 1: Police Commissioner, you have got to get out of here. 466 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: I really appreciate your time this morning.
