i believe it is impotent that the police sould have enough avediance to prosecute the defendent before presenting the caseto the court. i also think the fee if too much for police to pay because they are already leaking secources.

newspaper (summary) & (personel reflection)

Summary
Many schools have to wait almost 15years to have the unfurled heaters replaced. Treasury department is complacent to finance the projects. They say they have no money . The education minister is also in conflict with the premier on the issue.

Personnel reflection:
I believe this is an important issue for parent . Their kids are exposed to toxic gas in class room. many parents want the issue dealt with ASAP. I think delaying this issue could cost the government at next years elections.
