Text is incorporated into the Bound Volume.]10.STUART NASH (Labour—Napier) to the Minister of Police: If someone suspects criminal activity and they actually want the Police to turn up in under 10 minutes do they have to inform the Police that they have a gun?Hon JUDITH COLLINS (Minister of Police): No.Stuart Nash: What does she say to her constituent Mr Kumar who said about having his dairy robbed yet again that “We can’t do much … apart from reporting it to the cops and the cops never turn up saying ‘that’s not a major issue’”—[Interruption] I do not think dairies getting robbed is a—Mr SPEAKER: Order! [Interruption] Order! The question has been asked.Stuart Nash: No no. I have got more.Mr SPEAKER: The question has been asked.Stuart Nash: I raise a point of order Mr Speaker.Mr SPEAKER: If the member wants to break into an interjection and have a chat halfway through giving a question that is what will happen.Stuart Nash: But I lost my train of thought because there was so much stuff going on over there.Mr SPEAKER: Then because I am in a very generous mood I will allow the member to regather his train of thought to ask his question again and please do not respond to interjections.Stuart Nash: What does she say to her constituent Mr Kumar who said about having his dairy robbed yet again that “We can’t do much … apart from reporting it to the cops and the cops never turn up saying ‘that’s not a major issue’ … I’ve reported so many times that I’ve just lost hope”?Hon JUDITH COLLINS: I am happy to say to Mr Kumar and to that member that in relation to that matter the police were already on their way to the incident before there was any mention of a gun. The police have advised that the people in the shop waited 5 minutes before calling 111; that is 5 minutes after the youths left the scene. The call came in at 5.52 p.m. Police were despatched at 5.57 p.m. They arrived at 6.02 p.m.—10 minutes. I think that is an outstanding response from the New Zealand Police and by the way people have now been dealt with and the matter is being resolved.Stuart Nash: Has she not failed the country when police say “dairy robberies were not just a problem for Papakura but the district and the rest of the country.” considering that over 60 percent of all robberies do not get solved?Hon JUDITH COLLINS: No. In fact the people who have failed New Zealand are the parents who have not looked after their children.Stuart Nash: Why will she not admit that her Government has under-resourced—[Interruption]Mr SPEAKER: Order! Sorry to interrupt the member. Could the member start again. I am having trouble hearing the supplementary question.Stuart Nash: Sorry. Why will she not admit that her Government has under-resourced police when dairy owners have to lie to get police in order to get them to respond?Hon JUDITH COLLINS: I think I have made it very plain. Police responded straight away. They were outstanding. In fact nobody needed to lie and I am sorry that someone now feels that they do need to.
