It is simply unacceptable to see an increase in assaults on our emergency service workers at a time where, on a daily basis, they are risking their own health to protect us all through this deadly pandemic.
The impacts of these assaults on not only the individuals, but their families, friends and colleagues, must not be under-estimated. I will continue to play my part as Commissioner to ensure that those responsible are brought to justice and those affected are fully supported.
