Mark Mitchell: Police Minister on the outcome of the police pay increase negotiations
Manage episode 429046587 series 2098280
The Police Minister is defending the Government's pay increase for police, despite concerns of a mass exodus.
An independent arbitrator has ruled in favour of the Government's offer which includes a $1500 lump payment, an at least $5000 backdated wage increase, and increased overtime pay from July next year.
However, many cops are unhappy.
Mark Mitchell told Ryan Bridge while he understands where they're coming from, the government worked hard to put this together.
He says they've had a huge hospital pass and put together what they think is a fair package.
