New Zealand can't match what Australia's putting on the table for police officers.
New South Wales is 1500 officers short and has announced it'll fast-track New Zealand officers, shorten training, and allow experienced cops to keep their rank.
Police Minister Mark Mitchell told Andrew Dickens that they've been doing this for decades.
However, he said, we can’t compete with Australia’s economy although they’re trying to close that gap.
Mitchell said that the government is focused on making the economy stronger so we can provide a country that people actually want to come back to, as they see a future to raise their families.
