Police get their own Wiki
2:45PM Wednesday September 26, 2007

The public is being offered a novel way of contributing to the review  
process of new police legislation.

The Police Act wiki is an online forum similar to popular website  
Wikipedia.

Superintendent Hamish McCardle says people can access the site and  
participate in the way the new guidelines are scripted. He says the  
final outcome may well go towards informing a select committee  
process for the official policing bill next year.

Mr McCardle says the website will be monitored in case people attempt  
to sabotage it.

The public can have its say over the next three months at the Police  
Wiki page.
