INDEPENDENT COMMISSION AGAINST CORRUPTION

Mrs REDMOND (Heysen—Leader of the Opposition) (14:58): My question is for the Attorney-General. Did the Attorney-General raise the Rann government's proposal for a federal independent commission against corruption at the Standing Committee of Attorneys-General last Friday? The Attorney-General advised the house on 6 May that he would raise the issue of a national ICAC with the Standing Committee of Attorneys-General in Melbourne on 7 May; however, the issue was not mentioned in the communiqué issued from the meeting.

The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Attorney-General, Minister for Justice, Minister for Tourism) (14:58): Yes, I did.

Ms Bedford interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, the member for Florey!

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: He has answered. I'm sorry that question was answered too quickly for me; I'm not used to this.
