Yes, I am aware of that criticism, which is, as usual, inaccurate. I thank the member for a little notice of the question. The approved staffing level for the Joondalup police district on 1 June 1997 was 230. The approved average staffing level for the Joondalup police district on 1 September 2000 was 258. It was increased by 28 in that time. I would be obliged if the member would tell the people that that is the case.
