Police Numbers

Mr TELFER (Flinders) (14:38): My question is to the Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services. Have there recently been more police officers assigned to work within the CBD in reaction to concerns around antisocial behaviour?

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Point of order, sir.

The SPEAKER: Order! There is a point of order from the member for West Torrens, which I will hear under 134.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Standing order 97, sir: there are assumed facts in that question, and I ask the member to rephrase.

The SPEAKER: It may be. I will give the member the opportunity to recast the question.

Mr TELFER: Thank you, sir. My question is to the Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services. Has there been an increase in police officers assigned to work in the CBD and, if so, why?

The Hon. J.K. SZAKACS (Cheltenham—Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services) (14:39): There have been ongoing operations in the city, and there have been for a number of years. I can, with some further briefings for the shadow, provide some additional detail around that. City Safe is one of them and Paragon is another, but the short answer to the question is yes.
