"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have explained that this Government, because it is concerned about the welfare of the police, increased their salaries by 115 per cent. That is one of the biggest increments that has ever been done by the Government. I have also given the breakdown of other allowances that officers are earning now, but which were not there before. They include housing and medical allowances. I have also mentioned the group personal accident cover that covers a police officer if he dies or gets injured while working. I am satisfied that so far, the Government has done as much it can, within the prevailing budgetary constraints, to take care of the police. But we will endeavour to improve the welfare of the police as we go along."
