How backward is this Police Commissioner?? Do Queenslanders live in a vacuum? Just look down South at the neighbouring Southern States with their dedicated police helos. They have been so effective that they are certainly not viewed as 'over rated' by the Police commissioners and ministers in those States. Just open your eyes to the world and maybe the QLD Minister and Commissioner will enter the '20th' Century

Or is it that EMQ Helicopter Rescue has too strong a grip on relinquishing some of its power and having another Government agency using helicopters in a closely aligned field
