Chris Cahill: Police Association President on the delay in training more police officers
There’s a warning from the Police Association that the wait for more cops will hurt the force. The Government wants 500 more cops by the end of next year. But new commissioner Richard Chambers says to ensure proper training, June 2026 is more likely. Association President Chris Cahill told Ryan Bridge the delayed timeline will have an effect. He says they are already moving staff across different roles, leaving some jobs undone. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
