I thank the honourable member for some notice of this question. Hilton Police Station’s conversion to a day service centre in May 2007 was due to a reduction in crime and antisocial behaviour in the area and a management review of resource deployment efficiencies by management. There has been a realignment of the subdistrict boundaries for Fremantle, Palmyra and Murdoch Police Stations to increase the capacity of the south metropolitan district to provide a greater level of service and increased patrolling to the Hilton police subdistrict. The south metropolitan district is currently achieving agency-committed response times. The south metropolitan police district monitors crime trends on a daily and weekly basis through the tasking and coordinating group business process. In the year to date there has been a reduction in volume crime offences for the district and an increase of 25 per cent in committed traffic patrols.
