3840 - HUNTER TRAIN OFFENCES AND ASSAULTS

Hornery, Sonia to the Deputy Premier, Minister for Justice and Police, Minister for the Arts, and Minister for Racing

What offences and arrests occurred on Hunter trains from 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2016?

Answer -

The NSW Police Force has advised me that 6,336 legal actions have been identified on trains or railway premises in the Hunter during 2015-16, with 95 arrests. Over fifty offences were represented. Travelling, or attempting to travel, without a valid ticket was by far the most common offence, followed by alcohol and smoking offences and entering into prohibited areas.
