FLOREAT SHOOTINGS — POLICE RESPONSE
659. Hon PETER COLLIER to the minister representing the
Minister for Police:
I refer to the recent tragic
shooting in Floreat.
(1) Has the minister
viewed the body-worn camera vision, heard the audio or been informed of the
contents of conversations between officers when they escorted the ex-wife and
daughter of Mr Bombara to retrieve their belongings?
(2) If yes, is
the minister confident that no mistakes were made and that all procedures were
adhered to by attending officers?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question. I answer on behalf of the Minister for Emergency Services,
who is currently absent from the chamber. The Minister for Police advises the
following.
(1)–(2) This incident is subject to an internal
investigation by the Western Australia Police Force and, therefore, as Minister for Police, it is not appropriate for me
to provide comment while the investigation is being undertaken.
