Richard Chambers: Police Commissioner says quality over quantity for NZ Police
Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
Latest figures show at least 144 kiwi Police left for Australia in the past year, but Police Commissioner Richard Chambers is not concerned.
He told Mike Hosking that we have 'some of the best police officers in the world' and therefore it's no surprise other countries try to poach from us.
Chambers also maintains that our Police numbers are in a good place.
"I mean, there's a tremendous amount to be proud of is that we've got nearly 10,500 police officers now. We've never had that many, in this country before," he said.
