Dear Editor
Through your paper I write to encourage all Kyabram community members to sign the petition that is presently circulating through the town calling for increased police presence and numbers.
Kyabram is a special community which has historically benefited from excellent public safety and small town charm.
Community leaders have worked together as a team to ensure good governance and quality of life.
Sadly under the watch of Daniel Andrews and his Labor government that quality of life is being severely eroded.
As a direct result of the Andrews Labor government soft on crime policies Kyabram has experienced a dramatic spike in the crime rate and the community has been left vulnerable.
The very essence of keeping crime out of our community is crime prevention and stopping crime as soon as it happens.
Kyabram urgently needs increased police numbers and visible police presence on the streets.
Please take the time to sign the petition which is available at a number of local businesses or by downloading it

The petition will be presented to the Victorian Parliament on the 22nd June 2017.
Yours sincerely
Peter Walsh MP
Leader of The Nationals
Member for Murray Plains
