Court System

731 Ms BEDFORD (Florey) (26 August 2021). What impacts or delays are caused to the court system because lawyers cannot access prisons to receive instructions from clients in a timely manner?

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government):

I am advised by the Office of the Minister for Correctional Services that lawyers' access to clients has continued.

I am further advised that the member for Florey received advice from the Minister for Correctional Services in response to these questions in a letter dated 28 August 2021.
