          <by role="member" id="4364">The Hon. K.L. VINCENT (14:59):</by>  I have a further supplementary question. Further to that, what training do police have to ascertain where a domestic violence perpetrator may have undue influence over an adult with an intellectual disability who is living with them? For example, where a sibling or a friend is listed as the official family carer and might be receiving the carer payment and, therefore, has a vested interest in maintaining control over the adult with the disability so that they remain in the household and therefore continue to receive the additional benefits.</text>

MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (15:00):</by>  I thank the honourable member for her supplementary question. That is something I will have to take on notice in respect to the specific type of training that we are talking about. Again, I reiterate that the challenge of domestic violence is evolving. Whether there is any more as time goes on about how best to deal with domestic violence is a policy issue generally. We remain a government that is committed to try to do everything we can to address this scourge that causes so much pain and heartache to so many families and women across this state. We want to make sure that we continue to evolve and adapt, but I am happy to take the specific type of issue that the honourable member is talking about away to see if I can gain some more information to share with the Hon. Ms Vincent.</text>
