459. Dr D.J. HONEY to the Minister for Police:
I have a supplementary question.
Will the minister commit to publishing police response times so that the public
has confidence that police are responding in a reasonable time, as is the case
with ambulances?

I
do not know why the member would be trying to attack the Western Australia
Police Force. What an extraordinary thing to do at a time when we have been
served by, I think, easily the best Commissioner of Police that the state has
ever seen. The entire leadership of the Western Australia Police Force has been
exceptional in this environment that no-one alive on the planet has confronted
before. They have served us incredibly well. The police officers, to a man and
woman, have served the state incredibly well, and you come in here and suggest
that somehow their service is substandard. What I will do is I will commend the
Western Australia Police Force and the officers who serve our state so well for
the exceptional job that they do on behalf of all of us at this incredible
time.
