Green Party not happy at police pursuits revision

From Morning Report, 6:47 am on 30 November 2022

The Green Party is not happy at police suggestions that more active car pursuits could return.

The fleeing-driver policy is going to be looked at again in the new year, with an eye to giving police more leeway to chase a greater number of offenders.  

A "significant increase" in the number of fleeing drivers and a decrease in the number of offenders identified has led to the rethink.

Greens justice spokesperson Golriz Ghahraman spoke to Corin Dann.
