mullighan inquiry recommendations

The DEPUTY SPEAKER: Member for Morphett. This is a supplementary supplementary supplementary.

Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (15:25): It is; it's a supplementary. How many safe houses have been built on the APY lands for children who need sanctuary from abuse, as per recommendation 33 of the Mullighan inquiry?

The Hon. J.M. RANKINE (Wright—Minister for Education and Child Development) (15:25): My understanding is—and I am working from memory here—that working with the NPY women's organisation up there, there was, in fact, concern about building safe houses on the lands, and that accommodation was provided in other areas.

Dr McFetridge interjecting:

The Hon. J.M. RANKINE: I am happy to double-check that, but that is my understanding of what has occurred. There was consultation with the community in relation to the recommendation.
