The Front Page - En podkast av NZ Herald
An investigation by the NZ Herald has revealed concerns with police recruitment. Over the last several months, we've learnt that prospective cops who didn’t pass fitness or literacy tests were allowed to start training, and dozens of recruits graduated from police college despite not being assessed on their ability to swim. It’s prompted an audit by police of the process, and promises to change things, but has the damage already been done? NZ Herald investigative reporter Michael Morrah has led the charge on this, and with us today on The Front Page to run through what’s gone wrong here and how Police have responded.
