POLICE INVESTIGATIONS

In reply to Mr PISONI (Unley) (6 April 2011).

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY (Port Adelaide—Minister for Defence Industries, Minister for Police, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Motor Sport, Minister Assisting the Premier with the Olympic Dam Expansion Project): The South Australia Police (SAPOL) have advised that as part of their procedures in place to manage reported crime, supervisors have the responsibility to ensure investigating officers under their control are conducting enquiries in a timely manner. Procedures exist that where an investigating officer takes leave, retires, or is transferred, his or her tasks require re-allocation to another employee.
