Thank you very much busman for answering my question. I wasn't concerned about them from a 'decent citizens" point of view in the sense of 'big brother' I was concerned that Accy needs them i.e. is the crime rate that bad in Accy. When I was a young fella, one could walk about anywhere in Accy night or day and not be concerned at such things as e.g.muggings. In another post someone advised me that if I come back to Accy for a visit to bring some body armour
I wondered why.
It seems a shame to me that the state of affairs in Accy warrants their introduction. I am a retired cop myself and totally ignorant generally of the crime rate in U.K. Still. Thanks for the info. I appreciate it.
I am quite sure of course that they would be of great help to Police.
