Lecture Summary-Police -Oral Based Skill 2(Week 10)

Policeman Rohan Stace delivered a lecture regarding the police on Mt Abert campus yesterday( 15 May, 2007). He outlined a wide range of things which were related to the police. He mentioned about how to communicate with the police, including people's rights, what are the police expecting from people, and how to deal with burglars. ect. For example, if people are in danger, dial "111" and the police will come. People are suggested not to be involved with the first crime situation, and they should better leave immediately from there and dial "111" to the police, or directly go to the police station to report the situation. Self-defence is legal in New Zealand, but it is not encouraged, because very probably people would be seriously injured. Domestic violence is a serious crime in New Zealand. By law, children under 14 years should not be left at home alone, and they must be fastened in a car on the road.

Gernerally, if peoplw are in an emergency, feel free to dial "111" for help. For more information, please go to visit the police website www.police.govt.nz
