(a) No.
(b)-(c) Not applicable.
(d) There are currently 10 FTE detectives employed in the South West police district.
Due to operational sensitivities, specific information relating to deployment and staffing levels of individual police stations is not released. Resources are allocated at a district level and District Superintendents deploy those resources within their district to deliver the best possible policing service to the community.
