(1) The South Metropolitan District (which includes the District Office located in Fremantle) is currently subject to an internal policing review and any decision on the deployment of resources within the District will not be made until the review is finalised.
(2) The Fremantle Police Station site on Henderson Street has been de-commissioned.
(3) Sufficient maintenance is being carried out to ensure that the building fabric as well as equipment such as security and fire panels do not deteriorate. Additionally, the gardens are continuing to be maintained until such time as the review is completed and the future of the facility is determined.
(4-5) Please refer to (1).
