Police officers may face random drug tests and covert surveillance
Well why have they not done this already? If drugs are illegal and you wnat peopel to take drugs to get caught hten you obviously need a police force that doesn't use drugs. And there is an even better argument for surveillance. Imagine a "policemans black box" that records everything while the policeman is on duty - no in general any police complain can be dealt with swiftly and fairly to the policemans reputation and that of the member of the public at a fairly insignificant cost but it need not be used unless there is a problem (like a black box) and as a result we could place more faith in them.
Sure that is not what they are proposing but covert surveillance might be a step i nthe right direction.
