Police awarded study grants
Four police officers from NSW, Queensland, Tasmania and the Australian Federal Police are to receive grants for overseas study, the Minister for Administrative Services, Mr McLeay, announced yesterday.
The grants, worth $5,000 each, are the first to be awarded under a special study grants scheme, open to police throughout Australia. They will be awarded annually.
The successful applicants are Sergeant First Class Lionel Duff Kellock, NSW, Senior Sergeant Francis Michael Rynne, Queensland, Sergeant First Grade Ronald John Martin, Tasmania and Inspector Alan John Sing, Australian Federal Police (Sydney).
Sergeant Martin will go overseas to research methods of detection and investigation of arson incidents. Senior Sergeant Rynne will research the nature and scope of police training and education. Sergeant Kellock will study police internal affairs and investigation in overseas police forces.
Inspector Sing will use his grant to research social, judicial and legislative attitudes and trends and consequent
relationships to human rights, the law of arrest, ; the law of search and seizure and the admissibility of self-incriminating evidence.
