There is nothing specific to the dropped 999 calls. About this time last year, the AGS wrote to the Secretary General regarding examination of computer-aided dispatch priority 1 incidents specifically relating to cancellation of those 999 calls. In an update on 14 October this year the Policing Authority indicated that Mr. Penman's review is taking longer than envisaged due to legal issues. This ICT investment does not relate particularly to 999 calls. We will have to await the review.
