“The minute’s silence will mark 24 hours before Lyn is farewelled at a funeral service in Nelson with full Police honours,” said Commissioner Richard Chambers.

> We have invited staff to pause and observe a minute’s silence wherever they are to remember the ultimate sacrifice of one of our own and reflect as we prepare to lay Lyn to rest.  
>  
> Police Districts and Service Centres are encouraged to mark the occasion as appropriate to them, as their way of acknowledging the loss of a colleague.  
>  
> All Police flags are currently flying at half-mast until Friday 17 January.
