Police Recruitment

In reply to the Hon. A.L. McLACHLAN (17 November 2016).

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

Information relating to the tertiary qualifications held by academy graduates was not recorded prior to November 2016. Currently, there are 253 cadets in the Police Academy. Of those 253 cadets, 64 have university bachelor degrees or above. This equates to approximately 25% of current cadets having a university degree or higher.
