Is the Attorney-General's decision in the wake of the Rice review to establish a significant incident reporting unit outside of your department an admission of your failure and that of your department? The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN House of Assembly Bragg Deputy Premier Attorney-General Minister for Planning and Local Government Child Protection, Rice Inquiry The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government) (14:29): I thank the member for the question. Can I just say that there is no decision of me as Attorney-General in respect of this matter. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN House of Assembly The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN: The member has indicated that this is a decision of me as Attorney-General. It is not. It is a decision of the cabinet, and the consequence of the cabinet decision is that six recommendations given by Mr Rice have been completely accepted by the government. and indeed we have outlined—I won't repeat them again—the three extra areas of oversight to ensure that his recommendations are complied with and are undertaken successfully to ensure the outcomes that he has recommended, so there is no decision of me as Attorney-General. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Before I call the member for Reynell, I warn for a second time the member for Badcoe. I warn for a second time the member for Lee.
