1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: Three sixty with Katie wolf On mixed one oh four

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 1: point nine thanks to Joyce Main Darwin. Now we know

3
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 1: that it is being reported that assaults against police have

4
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: more than doubled in Palmerston in the past year, while

5
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: Alice Springs remains the most dangerous place to be a

6
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,799
Speaker 1: Territory cop. That's according to some new figures which have

7
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 1: been obtained by the Northern Territory News. Now joining us

8
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: on the line to talk further about this is the

9
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 1: Police Association President Paul mccu Good morning.

10
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 2: Paul, Good morning Katie. Here are going not.

11
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 1: Too bad, Paul, These figures are pretty astonishing. The NT

12
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 1: News is reporting that there were thirty six assaults against

13
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,919
Speaker 1: police recorded in Palmerston in the year to February, up

14
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: from seventeen in the previous twelve months. What is going on?

15
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 2: Oh, it's obviously a huge concern, isn't it when you

16
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 2: see sparks and assaults against their frontline workers and police

17
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 2: are at the forefront of that obviously, as we know,

18
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 2: you know, particularly those on the front line. You know

19
00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 2: they're often almost daily confronted with physical confrontation, with angry,

20
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 2: you know, violent individuals, and you know, as a result

21
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 2: often they do being assaulted, and we know the statistics

22
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 2: on a five year average, we're around two hundred and

23
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 2: forty five year Remember these are just reported assaults, so

24
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 2: you know these are and I think the other concern Katie,

25
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 2: on top of the numbers that we're seeing is the

26
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 2: severity of those assaults. And you know, with a lot

27
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 2: of officers being spat out, bitten, suffering some quite traumatic

28
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 2: injuries as a result of the execution of their duties.

29
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 2: And you know that's something we've been speaking to the

30
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 2: miniSTR a lot about. Yeah, I certainly out of the

31
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 2: last few years.

32
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 1: Well, no doubt. I mean, everybody deserves to be safe

33
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 1: in their workplace. And then when you're talking about our

34
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: frontline workers, it is absolutely essential Paul, talk us through

35
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 1: though some of I mean, by the look of things,

36
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: the more dangerous location or the most dangerous location to

37
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: be a police officer at this point in time when

38
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: it comes to those assaults is actually Alas Springs. Yeah.

39
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 2: Look, obviously it's a concern when you look at the

40
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 2: results in terms of the major areas of concern, Alice Springs, Palmerston,

41
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 2: you know, DA, and we're talking about those highly densely

42
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:17,239
Speaker 2: populated areas, a lot of I guess youth roaming the streets,

43
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 2: and a lot of our cohol related harm. And I

44
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 2: think when you're talking about those sorts of numbers and

45
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 2: now they're on the rise again, you know it's certainly

46
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 2: time to really put a focus on this and say, well,

47
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 2: what can we do to you know, act as a

48
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 2: bit of a bit of a deterrent in terms of

49
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 2: protecting our frontline workers. And you know, they don't go

50
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 2: to work to get assaulted. They go to work to

51
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 2: protect our community. And we know the work is inherently dangerous,

52
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 2: but you know, we want to make sure they're as

53
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 2: safe as possible in that workplace.

54
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: What can we do to try and protect our police

55
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: officers to ensure that they're not being assaulted.

56
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, look, obviously it's it's often it comes down to

57
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 2: a numbers game. And obviously there's the deterrent factor of

58
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,839
Speaker 2: course in terms of sentencing, which you know we've made

59
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 2: submissions onto the government back in November of last year

60
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 2: around you know, making sure people are getting an actual

61
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 2: term of imprisonment when they're undertaking these cowardly assaults and

62
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: not just a slap on the wrist and walking out

63
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 2: the court. You know, people might say, well, that's not

64
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: going to act as a deterred. Well, if you know

65
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 2: you're going to go to jail, if you cause harm

66
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 2: to one of our police officers, it may make you

67
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 2: think twice about taking them on in the street when

68
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 2: you think you're a hero and full of alcohol. So

69
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 2: I think there's a real conversation to be had there

70
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 2: because our members are fed up. We're going to work

71
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 2: and coming home with injuries.

72
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: Paul, you said there that those submissions were put forward

73
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: in November last year. Where is that inquiry or where

74
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: is all of that ast at this point?

75
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, we made a submission through to the Law Reform

76
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 2: Committee around it was to do with mandatory sentencing and

77
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: community based sentencing options, and we obviously met with that

78
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 2: Law Reform Committee in March of this year to further,

79
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 2: I guess further, make further verbal submissions in relation to

80
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 2: what we would like to see, and we yet to

81
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: hear back some two or three months down the track

82
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 2: as to where that's at. And obviously people are frightened

83
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 2: when you talk about sentencing and making sure people go

84
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 2: to prison, but let's not forget we're talking about our

85
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 2: frontline workers and the people we need to protect.

86
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: Now, Paul, can I ask you over the last twelve months,

87
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: how many of our officers have been assaulted?

88
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 2: Well, Look, obviously, in terms of statistics, we're talking around

89
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 2: two hundred and seven from March last year to February

90
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 2: of this year. As I said, previous five year averages

91
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 2: around two hundred and forty five. It did go down

92
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 2: for a year, down around one hundred and eighty, but

93
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 2: we're now on the rise again, and I think that's

94
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 2: reflective probably of I guess where we're sitting at the

95
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 2: moment in terms of a lot of our coal related

96
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,919
Speaker 2: offenses and harm that have increased last twelve months, and

97
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 2: of course when that happens both in urban and remote areas,

98
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 2: that further enhances that risk to our members who are

99
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 2: out there dealing with that with that harm.

100
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: Do you think that this contributes to police officers leaving

101
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 1: the force?

102
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 2: Look, I think you know, people join the job and

103
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 2: they understand the dangers involved, I think, but it's a

104
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 2: cumulative effect of assault after assault after assault, and many

105
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 2: of our members have been assaulted on several occasions, you know, sadly,

106
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 2: quite seriously and of course, over a period of time,

107
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:39,160
Speaker 2: that breaks down that person's resilience to those to those

108
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 2: assaults and being able to deal with it, and over

109
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 2: a period of time they go, you know what, I've

110
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 2: had enough of this, and I do want to look

111
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 2: for an alternate career because you know, over a period

112
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 2: of time it can have an impact.

113
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's I mean, it's a real shame because it's

114
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: all so preventable. You know, it shouldn't be happening in

115
00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 1: the first place. Paul, on those attrition rates, how are

116
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:01,159
Speaker 1: we going at the moment?

117
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, look, obviously, you know it's been well spoken around

118
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 2: the numbers that have been leaving over the past six

119
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 2: months or so. You know, we've spoken about on a

120
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 2: few occasions. We know there is a lot of recruiting

121
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 2: taking place. We're at the college yesterday speaking with the

122
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 2: new squad that started yesterday, thirty one new constables, you know,

123
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 2: which is great, and we know there's a lot of

124
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 2: recruiting taking place. Again, it doesn't replace experience overnight, and

125
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 2: that's something that needs to be factored into that discussion.

126
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 2: So when we're talking about numbers, and we know the

127
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,919
Speaker 2: ministers come out continually in staid we're recruiting above attrition.

128
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 2: We have record numbers. Sadly at the moment, that's not

129
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 2: reflective in the feedback we're getting when we can't only

130
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 2: put one van on the road on a shift. And

131
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 2: so members are getting a little tired of that narrative

132
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 2: when we say we've got all these numbers and yet

133
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 2: we can't get more than one van on the road.

134
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 2: And we've expressed that concern to the commissioners as later

135
00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 2: as last week.

136
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: So at the moment, and so we have got members

137
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: who are getting a bit fed up with the Minister

138
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: saying that you know that we've increased the numbers because

139
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: you've got a situation where the only one van on

140
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: the road in some locations.

141
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, look, I think you know we're not denying the

142
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 2: fact there is. You know, they're certainly recruiting heavily, and

143
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 2: we certainly when you look at the baseline figure of

144
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 2: numbers in the police force, it is reasonably high at

145
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 2: the moment, but it's not reflecting the feedback we're getting

146
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 2: when we still in twenty twenty one can't get more

147
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 2: than one van on the road on certain shifts. And

148
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 2: that's a consistent feedback that we're getting into our office.

149
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 2: We're not just saying this is isolated, it's consistent, and

150
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 2: so the question has to be asked, Stop saying that narrative,

151
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 2: Stop saying we've got all these numbers when we can't

152
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 2: actually get enough on the street to do the job.

153
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 2: So there needs to be a little bit more research

154
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 2: into why that's the.

155
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: Case, Paul, given the fact that we have got you know,

156
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: we've been told on numerous occasions that there is such

157
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: competitive recruits, with campaigns happening in other states and territories

158
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: as well to try to get police officers into these roles.

159
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: I mean, are we worried that, you know that we

160
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: may have some people entering the force who ordinarily maybe

161
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: not actually would maybe not actually be deemed as appropriate

162
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: or deemed to have enough skill to actually get into

163
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 1: the force in the territory. Yeah.

164
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 2: Look, obviously those that get in have been through a process.

165
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, you've got to entrust that the

166
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 2: recruitment area of the police force is doing their job. Obviously,

167
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 2: we're not privy to a lot of the decision making

168
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 2: around that, so it's difficult for us to comment. What

169
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,839
Speaker 2: we do know is, you know, we're concerned. If a

170
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 2: member's experienced in the police and the NT and they

171
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 2: leave to go to another police force, they still want

172
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 2: to be a police officer, but they want to do

173
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 2: it somewhere else, and so there needs to be a

174
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 2: dive into why that is the case. Why are they

175
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 2: leaving the Northern Territory to go to another police force.

176
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 2: And that's what we want to know, because if we're

177
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 2: not doing all we can to keep them here in

178
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 2: the end, to them, we're not doing enough and what

179
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 2: is that needs to be discussed.

180
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 1: What is your interaction with officers telling you when.

181
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 2: You say that, yeah, look, obviously we try and touch

182
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 2: space with several of those people that are leaving or

183
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 2: have left, and to try and understand why that's the case.

184
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 2: There is sometimes a go home fact that there's no

185
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 2: question about that. You know. Sometimes people have been recruited

186
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 2: from inter state and they say, you know, I've been

187
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 2: here ten or twelve years and I'm ready to go

188
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 2: back back to where my family is. But there's also

189
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 2: other reasons why people leave, and sometimes that's just because

190
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 2: they're simply unhappy in the job. And you know, that's

191
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 2: always going to be the case in any career. But

192
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 2: of course in policing, when you look at some of

193
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 2: the factors that police, you know, some of the things

194
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 2: they've had to put up with over the last year

195
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 2: or two, and some of the difficulties they've gone through.

196
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 2: Sometimes I say this isn't the career for me anymore,

197
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 2: and they move on. But we want to know what

198
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 2: we're doing an agency to say can we keep them

199
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 2: and why are they actually leaving?

200
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: And so are those exit surveys happening, because again there's

201
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,319
Speaker 1: been some conjecture about this, some saying that yes, there

202
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 1: are those exit surveys, others saying that they're not, or

203
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: that we're not getting the information that we need to

204
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: answer some of those questions that you've just raised.

205
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, look, we've certainly been assured through the Commissioner and

206
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 2: his senior executive that there are steps in place to

207
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 2: have those discussions with those members. But of course, you know,

208
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 2: you want to know the real reasons why people are leaving,

209
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 2: and sometimes I think people don't feel confident enough at

210
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,559
Speaker 2: that early stage to really express the reasons why they're leaving.

211
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 2: So that's why we try and touch base with them

212
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 2: as you know, as they are leaving, or perhaps some

213
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 2: weeks after they've left to have those discussions to find

214
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 2: out some of those reasons, and we continue to do that.

215
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 1: Well, I tell you there's a lot of text messages

216
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: coming through this morning as we're talking, Paul, I'll just

217
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: read one of these. It says, Hi, kat I've heard

218
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: that when a police employee applies for a transfer, they're

219
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: put under investigation to slow down their ability to leave.

220
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: Slash transfer might be a good one to us, as

221
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: commissioner says, this text, is that something that you've been told.

222
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 2: Look, there's all sorts of rumors get around. You know

223
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,439
Speaker 2: that people do apply to going to state and as

224
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 2: part of that process is the other police forces request

225
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,319
Speaker 2: what's called an integrity check on members that are currently

226
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 2: in the police force here. And you know, so that's

227
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 2: a normal process to go through. You know what comes

228
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 2: of that is dependent on that members record in terms

229
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,719
Speaker 2: of their integrity up here.

230
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: So like a reference check, I suppose, like a reference check. Well,

231
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 1: Police Association President, Paul mcew, it's always good to catch

232
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: up with you. We always appreciate your time. Thanks so

233
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: much for having a chat this morning.

234
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 2: No worries.

235
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 1: Have a great day, Katie, you too, thank you,
