D.W. RIDGWAY Legislative Council Leader of the Opposition POLICE, INDIGENOUS EMPLOYEES The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:42): I have a supplementary question. Does the minister concede that it will be impossible to achieve the strategic benchmark of 2 per cent across SAPOL? The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY Legislative Council Minister for Police Minister for Mineral Resources Development Minister for Urban Development and Planning POLICE, INDIGENOUS EMPLOYEES The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY (Minister for Police, Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning) (14:42): No, of course not. I am saying that, particularly if we are to get community constables in the more remote regions of the state where they will be of most benefit to the police and to their communities, recruitment will be very difficult. But we are certainly not going to give up on our targets.
