In a hastily convened Press Conference NT Police Minister MIKE REED promised, "...to make the reduction of white incarceration rates a major political priority"

Mr Reed pointed to the Country Liberal Party's Mandatory Sentencing as "...a step in the right direction" (and pleaded with reporters) "...to give Mandatory Sentencing a FAIR GO!"

The Police Minister blamed "...the influence of Aboriginal culture" for the high rate of incarceration in the NT.

Mr Reed later joked with NT NEWS reporters stating:
"We are doing much better than Tasmania."
