About Police Association of Tasmania

It was considered by many of those members at that time that salaries and conditions of service were in urgent need of improvement. Approaches to the Police Department and the Government were made but to no avail. Because of these fruitless approaches a group of police officers gathered together for the purpose of forming a Police Association. Similar bodies had been established in the majority of mainland states. The main aim of the organisation was, of course, to be a representative body, which would make formal application to the Government for better salaries and conditions for serving police officers.
