Thank you very much, hon member. I would like to state again that many police officers are honest people and they are doing their jobs diligently.
The measures which have been taken by the department are the following. Firstly, to prevent this abuse, where a person or an officer has exceeded the allocated leave days, the salary or payments are stopped immediately. So, they won't be paid if they are absent and have exceeded the days which they are allowed. Secondly, because of the problems which were identified around the health risk manager, the department has replaced the health risk manager so that we can deal with those problems which have been identified by the committee.
In addition, specific to what the member has asked about incapacity leave, the department is developing a comprehensive incapacity code so that we can deal with this matter comprehensively. I thank you very much.
