Rigney, Mr R.G.

The Hon. S.G. WADE (14:57): Supplementary question: I ask the minister under what statutes action will be taken against the Department for Correctional Services officers? Will that be the Correctional Services Act or the Public Service Act?

The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (14:57): I refer back to my ministerial statement on this one. I made it very clear that a separate process be initiated by the chief executive of the Department for Correctional Services regarding ascertaining the mistakes that were made by individuals, the degree of human error that exists here, and indeed who should be held to account for that. I will wait to see the way that that process unfolds.
