Chris Cahill: Police Association President on the long-term neglect of Police infrastructure

Published: Feb. 19, 2024, 8:13 p.m.

Long-term neglect of Police infrastructure has led to health and safety concerns at a number of stations nationwide. \xa0

The Police Association says issues range from areas being off-limit because of black mould, to leaky walls and roofs, nailed-up windows, and lockers housed in toilet cubicles.\xa0

Association President Chris Cahill told Mike Hosking that this isn\u2019t this government\u2019s problem.\xa0

He said that it\u2019s an infrastructure problem that should be planned for over the next 40-50 years, not the three-year election cycles.\xa0

Cahill said that most of the stations around the country were built in the 60\u2019s, and are at the end of their lives.\xa0
