Hanlon, Mr J.

Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (15:04): My question is for the Attorney-General. Did the Attorney-General have the conversation with anybody in the Director of Public Prosecutions' office regarding the ex officio prosecution of Mr John Hanlon?

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government) (15:05): I think I have answered this before, that I have briefings from time to time from the DPP. We have regular meetings, at least once a month, in relation to his area, and most recently that has been in relation to Operation Ironside and what resources his division may need. So, yes, I do meet regularly with him and, in relation to individual cases, that's a matter for him or his department.
