Dear New Zealand Police,
Can you please advise what your procedures are when responding to a telephoned in bomb threat to a secondary school in NZ.
Is there a specialist team involved in checking and securing the property?
Is it normal practice for heavily armed police to be guarding the location at which there has been a bomb threat.
Is it usual practice that the police would also inform surrounding residential properties of the threat?
thank you
Yours faithfully,
C M Cotter

Yours sincerely,
