Hon POTO WILLIAMS: There is no doubt that there are distressing experiences that our people in our community experience every day, but I know that the Police are doing a fantastic job in their work to combat gangs and organised crime, as I've just said. The Police take a number of actions, and I point to Operation Tauwhiro as being just one such action: a year of success, which has meant we've rolled it out for a further six months. I want to say I thank the Police for the work that they have done in taking 1,531 firearms off the street, arresting 1,255 people, and removing 53 kilograms of meth out of circulation.
