The Hon. M.J. WRIGHT (Lee—Minister for Police, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing): The South Australia Police has provided the following information:
| Communications Branch as at 30 June 2010 | |||
| Sworn | Unsworn | Total | |
| Establishment | 101.00 | 3.00 | 104.00 |

Implementation of the increase in the SAPOL establishment of 313 positions over four years will commence in 2010-11 and conclude in July 2014. A review of the Call Centre and Communications Branch is currently being undertaken. It is expected that this review will make recommendations in relation to staffing levels.
While no variation to full-time equivalent numbers is budgeted for the Call Centre or Communications Branch for the current financial year (2010-11) at this time, staffing levels may vary in the current year depending on the outcome of the review.
