AnswerView source ↗
I thank the member for some notice of this question. The Minister for Police and Emergency Services has provided the following answer. (1) Western Australia Police advises that specific information related to the staffing levels of individual police stations is not released. Resources are principally allocated at district level, and district superintendents employ these resources within their districts to provide the best possible policing services to meet operational requirements and the varying needs of the community. Hilton Police Station is in the south metropolitan police district, which, as at 30 April 2008, has 396.03 actual full-time equivalents, compared with 382.97 actual FTEs at 30 April 2005—an increase of 13.06. (2) There has been no net reduction in the number of police officers available for servicing the policing needs of the Hilton subdistrict.
