The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety): I am advised:

1. In the period 25 August 2016 to 22 September 2016 there were 18 calls for assistance from the Indulkana community. Only one call was received between the hours of 6pm and 6am.

2. The single incident occurring at night required police attendance and the response time was 39 minutes.

3. The Practice Directions of the Royal Commission states:

'Access to Documents Produced to the Commission Pursuant to Summons:

16. Documents produced by an individual or organisation under summons shall be treated as confidential by the Commission and shall not be released except where a release order is made by the Commissioner.'

Therefore a copy of the answers provided to the commission will not be released.
