Police Cadets

In reply to Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (27 July 2015). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety): I have been advised:

For 2015-16, six intakes that total 145 cadets are planned; being 24 cadets for each intake in August 2015, November 2015, January 2016, March 2016 and May 2016; and 25 cadets for the June 2016 intake.

From 2014-15, the constable development program has changed to a cadet period of 12 months meaning that the 145 cadets will all graduate in 2016-17.

Intakes beyond 2015-16 have not yet been scheduled.
