Description

The police are doubling down on their recruitment drive as the deadline for bolstering the front line looks set to come and go. The government pledged to have 500 more front line officers in two years, which is by next month. The force is up against an aggressive recruitment drive by Australian police looking to coax officers across the ditch, but has just launched its own campaign. Acty Deputy Commissioner Tusha Penny spoke to Lisa Owen.
