 Renee HEATH (Eastern Victoria) (12:48): (984) My question is for the Minister for Crime Prevention and concerns the increase in cases of retail theft in Pakenham, which have risen by 9 per cent. Businesses are suffering and feel unsupported by the government. Crime is out of control under Labor, and we cannot afford to let this go unaddressed. So my question for the minister is: what is your plan to decrease crime and keep businesses alive in Pakenham?
