Yasmin Catley: NSW Police Minister says shortage calls for Kiwi officers to join ranks
Manage episode 418339375 series 2098282
The New South Wales government feels no guilt for attempting to poach Kiwi police.
The state is 1500 officers short, and it today announced it'll fast-track New Zealand officers as recruits.
Training requirements will be shortened and Kiwis can keep their current rank - up to senior constable.
Police Minister Yasmin Catley says it's just another measure to bolster numbers.
"Queensland's been doing it, Victoria's been doing it - this has been going on for quite some time."
