NSW: National anti-gun push
New South Wales Police want a national strategy to attack the flow of illegal handgunsinto Australia.
The move comes as a crime expert warns the country could face rising homicide ratesif the problem isn't tackled.
The head of the NSW Firearms Trafficking Unit, Detective Superintendent HELEN BEGG,has renewed her call for uniform laws across states and territories.
Superintendent BEGG says NSW has the toughest laws in Australia and other states shouldlook at passing similar legislation.
However, Federal Justice Minister CHRIS ELLISON says the NSW government's past neglectof gun smuggling issues has led to the state's current handgun crisis.
