          <by role="member" id="1804">The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government) (14:40):</by>  In relation to the action that concluded in the Magistrates Court last week, I have made an inquiry in relation to my department via the chief executive in relation to getting a briefing from the DPP as to what action he is proposing in relation to this matter, because, as the member may be aware, the fact that a matter may have concluded in the Magistrates Court doesn't prohibit the DPP, independent as the DPP is, from taking some other action in another court. So they are matters which, I am advised, at this point he is considering.</text>
        <text id="2021062290483de68d8c4fb8a0000533">So, in the sense that there has been an inquiry, yes, there has been an inquiry via my chief executive to inquire if I can have a briefing from the DPP's office. But I am aware that the matter is under consideration.</text>
