          <by role="member" id="1804">The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government) (15:25):</by>  I think I have outlined that, but I am happy to get some further information to ascertain whether there has been any other advice sought. But largely, in relation to a claim arising out of the conduct by another in relation to a civil matter—it may be a civil matter. If it's a compensation matter arising out of a claim against the Victims of Crime Fund, then generally that requires that there be either a convicted party or an offender unknown, and that can be in some circumstances available. It is only available for personal injuries. If there is some other aspect that I can assist the member with, I am happy to take the detail.</text>
