POLICE STATIONS

Mr VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart) (14:55): My question is to the Minister for Police. Minister, now that you have had 24 hours to check your media comments, can you now tell parliament which police stations are being considered for closure, given that you have been reported as having said that the closure of smaller shopfront stations, including Malvern and Firle, was among measures being discussed?

The Hon. M.F. O'BRIEN (Napier—Minister for Finance, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (14:55): I thank the member for Stuart for the question. If you could supply me with that because I have requested and have received confirmation that I did not make that remark.
