BIKIE GANGS AND LIQUOR LICENCES
I ask a supplementary question. When are the minister and the Commissioner of Police going to tackle organised crime and bikie gangs to stop the ice epidemic, and when are the minister and the Commissioner of Police going to start banning some of these dangerous criminals from our nightspots? Mr J.C. KOBELKE

AnswerView source ↗

As I have indicated, the police have been very proactive. However, much more needs to be done. I have great confidence that the police will take a very tough line on organised crime and that they will use, where it is appropriate, the new provisions in the liquor licensing act.
