COMMON GROUND

The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (15:05): Will the new minister undertake to ensure that all Common Ground residents, be they in Light Square or the former facility, have access to any files kept on them and have full disclosure given to them should they request those files and have the ability to challenge the contents of those files?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Minister for Social Housing, Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (15:06): I am not aware of the policy about accessing one's own files. I imagine that there are processes in place to do so, but I will check with my department and come back with a response.

The PRESIDENT: The Hon. Mr Stephens has a supplementary.
