Legislative Council Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time South Australia Police Corporate Programs South Australia Police Corporate Programs The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS Legislative Council South Australia Police Corporate Programs The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS (15:27): By way of supplementary question: I thank the minister for committing to bring that back, if it is available. In doing so, I would be grateful if he could clarify the situation relating to secondary student driver training, the Duke of Edinburgh Awards and a program called North on Target, and advise whether they are part of SAPOL's corporate programs. The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS Legislative Council Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety South Australia Police Corporate Programs The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (15:27): I am happy to undertake that; if a specified list is available to be shared, we can do that. Of course, if that list can be made available to the Hon. Mr Dawkins he can look at those particular programs. My understanding, at a higher level, is that SAPOL as an organisation is very committed to making sure it is actively engaged with the community, both in formal and less formal ways. I know that part of the restructure that is going on within SAPOL specifically has its eye to the fact that proactive policing very much requires effective community engagement, and that may well be through the sort of programs and causes to which the Hon. Mr Dawkins has referred, or it may not be. Of course, police officers in their own time are more than able to take up whatever causes they see fit, and many do. Many police officers go above and beyond their specific call of duty in their own time, but others are able to do it through the course of ordinary events, where it is appropriate to do so. If there is a prescribed list that potentially could identify some of the organisations to which the Hon. Mr Dawkins has referred, I am happy to make inquires on his behalf with SAPOL and share any information that he is after, if it is appropriate to do so.
