In this issue of Ten-One Community Edition we hear about how an off-duty constable, Craig Bennett, saved a Dunedin family from their burning house. We also update you on the Independent Review of Police Communications Centres and the Commission of Inquiry into Police Conduct.

We bring you details of this year's Budget, which provided a substantial boost to front-line staffing and funded more new vehicles, the implementation of stab-resistant body armour, replacement of the Remington rifle, and the introduction of new fingerprint technology.

Also featured this month: inaugural NZ Police Women's Waka Ama Regatta; Palmerston North detective elected to a top job in New Zealand's largest service club; and NZ Police help rebuild policing services in Banda Aceh.
