Youth Boot Camp

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (15:24): My question is to the Minister for Youth. What involvement has the minister, or indeed the youth justice subprogram within her department, had in developing the new youth justice boot camps being progressed by the Attorney-General?

The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Justice Reform, Minister for Planning, Minister for Housing and Urban Development, Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Child Protection Reform) (15:25): Thank you very much for that question. The situation is that, of course, the Minister for Youth and I have been collaborating together—

Mr Pisoni interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Unley is warned for the second and final time.

The Hon. J.R. RAU: We have been collaborating together in this matter, which incidentally arose from a promise made by the government before the last election in 2014. We indicated that if we did secure a return to office we would be initiating a program of this type. I can help members by saying that at the moment we are in an appraisal stage of the project where we are ascertaining what sort of service providers are out there and what sorts of programs they have. We do not at the moment have something which is at a stage where there is any matter that I feel the Minister for Youth and I need to sit down and nut the fine detail out of.

That will happen and, in due course, when we are satisfied we have something which is entirely appropriate, I imagine it is the sort of thing that we will discuss with our cabinet colleagues and come to a landing on. But in the meantime, work continues and we are looking at matters of detail. As I said, it is my recollection that we have not got to the point where we have a concluded, settled proposition.
