Do retired police officers get the support they need?

from The Conversation Hour · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

Wayne Gatt, CEO of the Police Association told Breakfast this morning that policing has become such a violent and confrontational career path that there needs to be better supports in place to allow officers to retire healthy, wealthy and with dignity. In this edition of The Conversation Hour we look at what needs to happen to better support police officers in their retirement. Also, from today cigarettes (not just the packages) will have health warnings on them — so far will this go in preventing people from smoking. And speaking of prevention WA has recently introduced a preventative health minister — do we need one in Victoria too?
