(1) When was the
stay survey introduced by the Western Australia Police Force for officers
considering leaving the force?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the Leader of the Opposition
for some notice of the question. The Western Australia Police Force advises the
following.
(1) It was introduced in October
2023.
(2) A stay
survey, which is known as a separation discussion, occurs as soon as an officer
in charge becomes aware of a pending resignation or is advised of an officer's
decision to resign.
(3) No.
