Hon POTO WILLIAMS: Firstly, I want to acknowledge that those who've been affected by the recent shootings, either as bystanders or those living nearby, have had a pretty tough time with it; it's been quite scary for them. These incidents are completely unacceptable, and that's why the police have responded so strongly. The police have launched an operation which has so far seen 10 arrests, four firearms seized, and over 250 rounds of ammunition. The operation supported by armed offenders squad staff who are deployed from across Auckland. The police are doing their job.
