Shadow Wants Answers
Revelations about secret police reports warning of organised crime again confirm a crisis in management of policing in this state.
The public have a right to know the truth, (says Shadow Police Minister Peter Debnam.)
Ken Moroney and Clive Small both work for Bob Carr and we need the Premier, Commissioner and Commander Small to front the media today together to answer these questions:
* Did Commissioners Ryan and Moroney see the reports five years ago?
* Were the Police Minister and Premier aware of the reports ?
* Which senior police were given a copy of the reports and which ones actually read the reports ?
* Given Commander Clive Small worked for the Premier for the
last two years, has he discussed the secret reports with Premier Carr ?
* If not, why hasn't Commander Small discussed the reports with the Premier ?
