    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 15 June 2005
    Chair, I think we should congratulate the police on the success that they have had in detection and prevention so far, and I think you mentioned a couple of the cases, and obviously prevention always happens; success is quiet in this context, and failure is very, very, very loud and public.
