Police Minister in Hawke’s Bay
June 11, 2009
Craig Foss, MP for Tukituki and Chris Tremain, MP for Napier are delighted to be hosting the Minister for Police and Corrections, Judith Collins, in Hawke’s Bay on June the 11th.
In the morning the Minister will be attending a Law and Order meeting at the Waipawa Town Hall and visiting Mangaroa Prison, while in the afternoon she intends to call into both the Hastings and Napier Police Stations and later visit those officers who were injured in the recent Napier siege.
“The Minister is here supporting the Hawke’s Bay community with their calls to push back against those who don’t respect the law and order boundaries of a decent society,” said Tukituki MP Craig Foss. “ She is also here to reinforce her support and gratitude to those who performed their duties so diligently in recent events; both in Central Hawke’s Bay and Napier.”
“We are delighted at the support we are receiving from Minister Collins,” says Napier MP Chris Tremain. “ Not only is she supporting those that gave so much, but at a parliamentary level the Minister has shown that she is working hard to give the Police the tools and manpower they need to get the job done”
“The hard work is borne out in the recent raft of legislation that has been passed. Our election promise to get tough on crime is being strongly adhered too, and we won’t stop here,” adds Mr Foss
