Has the minister received any advice about any costs to SAPOL to monitor and keep track of any immigration detainees who may be released into the community; if so, what is that cost? The Hon. J.K. SZAKACS House of Assembly Cheltenham Minister for Trade and Investment Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services Minister for Local Government Minister for Veterans Affairs Immigrant Detention The Hon. J.K. SZAKACS (Cheltenham—Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services) (14:22): I might finish my previous answer, and then get onto— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! No, minister, you will not. The standing orders require you to answer the question that has been put to you. The Hon. J.K. SZAKACS House of Assembly Cheltenham Minister for Trade and Investment Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services Minister for Local Government Minister for Veterans Affairs The Hon. J.K. SZAKACS: Thank you, sir. I will endeavour to be helpful to the member, because the simple answer to the member's question is that no, SAPOL do not electronically monitor individuals. They never have. They are not charged under the law to do that. That is an entirely different government agency.
