Long Range Acoustic Devices

In reply to Mr VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart) (1 August 2016). (Estimates Committee A)

The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety): I am advised:

These devices were obtained through the Australia New Zealand Counter Terrorism Committee (ANZCTC) in 2011. The Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD) 100 was purchased by the Committee at a cost of $16,000 and the LRAD 500 was purchased at a cost of $33,000. There was no cost attributed to the South Australia Police.
