"For our officers, who dedicate their working lives to helping people, Halatau's death was everything they were trying to prevent."
Mr Naitoko's mother, Ivoni Fuumaono, thanked police for their support.
But she said her son's life was priceless and that no amount of money would bring him back.
Mr Naitoko died at the wheel of his courier van on January 23, 2009, during a shootout between police and a man they were chasing, Stephen McDonald.
McDonald, fueled by methamphetamine, broke into three different homes, pointed a gun at bystanders, stole cars and led a police on a high-speed pursuit in suburban streets.
He was later convicted and sentenced to 13 years after he admitted 23 charges, including firing at police, possessing a firearm, aggravated robbery and unlawfully getting into a motor vehicle.
