THE NSW opposition has accused the O'Farrell government of putting cost savings ahead of community safety by placing a freeze on police recruitment.
In a statement on Saturday, Opposition Leader John Robertson said the government had stopped applications for a number of police force employment programs.
"The O'Farrell government has suspended recruitment for the NSW Police Force indefinitely - despite critical police shortages in the child abuse squad, public transport command and local police stations," Mr Robertson said in a statement.
"It has today been revealed the government has ordered no new applicants be allowed to apply to become a police officer in NSW - because it claims it already has enough."
Opposition police spokesman, Nathan Rees, said the announcement was about cost reduction.
He called on the government to explain whether it was putting cost cutting ahead of community safety.
Comment was being sought from the government.
