Police get their own Wiki

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.
