Crime has to be addressed

Mr Keith Whitfield stated in Peninsula News on March 21 (Politicians weakened by media) that Ms Kathy Smith, Member for Gosford, is only doing her job to make sure crime is highlighted and tabled in parliament.

I agree with Mr Whitfield about the crime that is committed on the Peninsula and that it has to be addressed and questioned on the legality of how resources can be used for our local area commands to tackle the problems associated with gangs and other rivalry criminals who cause anarchy.

Teenagers and other people who are involved in drug and alcohol fuelled violence in clubs and pubs need to look at how much they are consuming and their behaviour.

Legislation needs to be implemented on the consumption of alcohol so that when a person has had quite enough then it should be made law that alcohol should not be served after hours.
