BIKE BAN NOT FOR WESTFIELD.

Dear Damien

Thank you again for your time on the phone earlier today - and we appreciate you getting in touch.

As we discussed, I'd like to confirm the following:

• We’ve had no incidents or issues in relation to the story that was aired on A Current Affair last night. In the meantime, we continue to work closely with police as always, in the interests of maintaining safety as our priority.

• People are banned from our centres based on their behaviour, not their appearance or membership of particular group within the community

I hope this addresses some of your concerns regarding last night's story, for which you'll note we declined to comment.

Please feel free to get in touch at any time, and thank you for the articles you sent through on the successful toy run initiative.

Kind regards,

Julia
