          <by role="member" id="633">The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (14:51):</by>  Thank you, sir. My question is to the Attorney-General. Did the Attorney-General contact the Cheney family before the Attorney-General decided to table the Kourakis report in the parliament making public the now Chief Justice's view that their daughter was murdered?</text>

          <by role="member" id="1804">The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General) (14:51):</by>  Yes. A letter was sent by me on Monday morning, it must have been. Once the decision was made after advice was given on whether any portion of the document needed to be redacted, I made it clear and conveyed a letter to solicitors for the Cheney family, who had contacted us after we had made contact with the Cheney family in relation to the settlement arrangements, that it was appropriate that they be advised as a matter of courtesy that the decision had been made, that a copy of the document that had otherwise been kept secret by the previous government would be tabled in the parliament, and, from memory, that it would be made clear that it would be made in full.</text>
