Tony Hill: District Commander Superintendent on the plan to centralise police officers in Canterbury

Canterbury Mornings with John MacDonald

Canterbury police say they'll still serve rural communities under a plan to centralise officers.

They're mid-way through two weeks of internal consultation on a plan to shift some officers from smaller rural stations, to larger 24/7 hubs in Rolleston and Rangiora.

District Commander Superintendent, Tony Hill, told John MacDonald rural liaison officers will still work with smaller areas, and police will respond and come in from one of the hubs.
