I enclose an article from the May issue of 'The Paper' on the Auckland Task Force. As you are, from recent speeches, a strong suppporter of this body, could you please answer the following questions:

1.	To what degree has the Task Force reduced serious crime in Auckland streets (offences carrying more than 6 months jail, particularly robbery and assault)?
2.	The incident reported here is one of many [unclear: neomingly] unprovoked attacks on Polynesians by Task Force members. Can you let me why the Police Department has failed to investigate any of these?
3.	The Auckland Committee on Racism and Discrimination has drafted a detailed report on Task Force activities, concluding that the Force is deliberately discriminating against Maoris and other Polynesians. Have you read this report? Does the Police Department intend to do anything about it?
4.	Why are 60% of Task Force's arrests of Polynesians, where this group comprises less than 15% of the Auckland population?
