PICCOLO (Light—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (14:45):</by>  Not at all, Mr Speaker. The substance of the recommendation is to ensure that a person who is reporting a particular matter to the police does so in a way which is private and nonthreatening. That is the essence of the thing, and that can be addressed in a number of ways. The advice of the police is that they are confident they can do that, and, like I said, that will vary from station to station. It is easier to do in some larger metropolitan stations where there is more capacity. In some of the smaller stations or some of the one-officer stations it will have to be negotiated, and each station and each officer will use their professional judgement to make sure it's done.</text>
