Police ethics ‘under watch’
SYDNEY: A closer examination of police ethics was promised yesterday when the NSW Minister for Police, Mr Pickering, announced three new assistant commissioners.
Detective Chief Superintendent Tony Lauer, 52, will take on the new portfolio of Assistant Commissioner of Professional Responsibility.
He would concentrate on internal affairs and enforcing ethical standards within the force, Mr Pickering said.
NSW Police Commissioner Mr John Avery said police ethics and conduct would “come under close inspection” under the new portfolio.
“We are not just on some evangelical kick,” he added.
“We will broaden the police education program to raise police ethical standards as well as new ways of dealing with people after an accident or crime.”
NSW’s other new Assistant Commissioners are Superintendent Charles Parsons and Chief Superintendent Laurie Poulton.
The appointments follow the retirements of three of the state’s seven assistant commissioners.
SYDNEY: Young Australians should be encouraged to form vigilante groups to try to combat the rising tide of crime, particularly violent crime, the NSW president of the Returned Services League, Sir Colin Hines, said yesterday.
But both the police and the NSW Council for Civil Liberties warned that vigilante groups could become uncontrolled, hurting civil rights.
Sir Colin said that from what he had seen and read, vigilante groups in the United States comprised a fine type of young person who was “ready to get out and stop all this type of crime”.
He understood that people would want to protect themselves from muggings, assaults and theft.
“I’d love to see our young people encouraged to do this sort of thing in this country,” he said.
It would not be dangerous provided it was “controlled” by the authorities, who should encourage it.
Chief Superintendent Laurie Poulton, of the NSW Police Community Relations Bureau, said police were opposed to the idea of vigilante groups.
With community-involvement activities such as the drug-line Operation Noah, Neighbourhood Watch, School Watch and Safety Houses for Children, information was referred to police, who carried out any follow-up action. Vigilantism could get out
of control.
“With the police we can control it very closely and we can ensure that civil liberties are not breached,” he said.
The secretary of the NSW Civil Liberties Council, Ms Beverley Schurr, said the council supported the police desire for “community policing”, but only because police had guaranteed that it would not lead to vigilantism.
Six pupils of Westmead Junior Technical School will leave for an educational tour of Northern Queensland and the Barrier Reef on August 23.
The pupils are David Weir, Colin Borne, Laurence Poulton, Fred Swan, Willoughby Harmer, and Barry Robertson. Conducted by the Young Australia League, the tour will cost each boy £15.
Two hundred pupils from schools in N.S.W. and Victoria are expected to take part in the tour.
The boys will travel from Brisbane by Special train for Northern Queensland, and this will be followed by the cruise to the Barrier Reef.
Five pupils of Westmead Junior Technical School are on their way to a National Fitness Camp at Broken Hill. They left by train last Thursday morning.
