In this issue of Ten-One
Community Edition we explore the findings and recommendations of the
Independent Review of Police Communications Centres.
We find out what
police are doing overseas and read about the success of the 'Stepping
Out' programme to teach children how to keep themselves safe
on the roads.
We also look at an especially modified car being used to educate young
people about the dangers of illegal car modifications; talk to the
new NZ Police national chaplain; and see the NZ Police pipe bands performing
at the recent New Zealand South Pacific National Pipe Band Championships
in Invercargill.
