Senior Constable Ray Kerridge Retires After 21 Years of Service

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley)

—Speaker, I would like to commend Senior Constable Ray Kerridge of the St George Police Area Command, who recently announced his retirement after 21 years of exceptional service. Since joining the NSW Police Force in 2003, Ray has exemplified dedication, professionalism, and commitment in every facet of his duties. Some of Ray's specific roles and expertise have included anti-theft, the bike response unit, and the crime management unit. Through this impactful service, Ray has not only left a mark on the St George community, but also within communities throughout wider New South Wales. In times of great crisis, Ray helped to provide relief during the NSW flood crisis and was involved in the COVID-19 response. Police officers like Ray have ensured that the St George Police Area Command remains one of the most respected and diverse commands in the state of New South Wales. I would like to once again thank Senior Constable Ray Kerridge for his service to the St George community and wish him a retirement that is filled with relaxation and joy.
