The Treasurer has this morning admitted that the payout paid to Jamie Chalker was paid for out of the Police Budget, and no additional funds were provided to the Police Budget to support this figure.
The Treasurer despite being responsible for all expenditure of taxpayer dollars, continued to say that she had no idea how much the payout was, so could not name what services had to be cut from the Police budget to fund this payout.
Our hardworking police don’t deserve the level of disrespect and disregard shown to them by Labor. This is just another example of Labor turning back on Police.
Our already under-resourced Police have paid for this Fyles Government stuff up.
