Police hope to go to arbitration over pay next month. More than 75 percent of members have voted NO to the latest pay offer, which included a new overtime rate, a pay increase and a cash payment. They say it doesn't remedy the decline in salaries. Police Minister Mark Mitchell says it's disappointing - and will draw out an already lengthy process. Police Association President Chris Cahill told Heather du Plessis-Allan they want pay increases to match the rate of teachers. "They received 6 percent last July, which is when ours (agreement) ran out," he said.  "They received another 4 percent at the start of April and they'll receive another 4 percent at the start of December this year." Cahill says those are the figures his members want to talk about.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
