The Hon. GREG PEARCE: My question is to the Minister for Police. Is he aware that since 1 July 1997 Gladesville Local Area Command has had seven commanders and that recently advertisements appeared to fill the position by way of a temporary commander? What action will he take to stop this revolving-door approach to management at the Gladesville Local Area Command? Will he give an undertaking to the House that the Gladesville Local Area Command will not be downgraded?
The Hon. MICHAEL COSTA: I am not aware of these statistics.
The Hon. Michael Gallacher: You are not having a good day today, are you?
The Hon. MICHAEL COSTA: This is a new tactic. I am not aware of the statistics in relation to Gladesville, but I will obtain details. In relation to the promotion system, the Government and my ministry are looking at that at the moment.
