AFPA supports inquiry into Drug Harm Reduction Policy

The Australian Federal Police Association (AFPA) welcomes the call from ACT Greens spokesperson for Drug Harm Minimisation Johnathan Davis MLA for an inquiry into the Alcohol, Tobacco and other Drug Harm Reduction Policy.

AFPA court win

The AFPA took the AFP to the Federal Circuit Court in late 2018 following its refusal to pass on the 3% salary increase to a group of six members on commencement of the EA2017-2020 on 24 May 2018.

The Court handed down judgment in favour of the AFPA and our members, finding that the AFP were not entitled to withhold the salary increase provided for under the EA2017-2020.
