The Next of Kin program is designed for people who live alone and could even be isolated from family or community by choice or circumstance. The program uses a data-base platform to hold the name of the registered person, their nominated next of kin and contact details for their Doctor or other relevant contacts. In an emergency this information assists Police to contact the registered person, their next of kin and doctor if needed.

Act drug bust
ACT police last week arrested and charged a 27-year-old Coombs man with drug distribution offences following a long running joint investigation into the supply of drugs in the ACT.
In February of this year ACT Criminal Investigations, with assistance from the National Anti-Gangs Squad, commenced a joint investigation into the activities of a senior Comanchero criminal motorcycle gang member.
Drugs seized included approximately 300 grams of Methylamphetamine, 30 grams of cocaine and 30 grams of MDMA with a total estimated street value of $154,000.
Car chase
A driver who failed to pay for fuel at a Batemans Bay service station led NSW police on a pursuit for nearly 50 kilometres from Braidwood to Bungendore before finally abandoning his car in the ACT. Police terminated the chase in Bungendore due to safety concerns and alerted ACT police of the car's approach.
