00:00I think we do need to build confidence in our policing. It's one of the commitments we made
00:04into the election and we'll work with the Commissioner on this. Part of that is our plan
00:10for extra police officers, neighbourhood police officers, you know where people want to see them
00:14in their community. Part of it is obviously working with the police. You've seen the way
00:18we've done that in the disorder which is not pointing the fingers of blame but collaborating
00:23around the table. But also we do need you know that investment. Well we're working with the
00:28Commissioner to build up confidence. Obviously we've had 14 years where you know law and order
00:34has been neglected.
