Female Genital Mutilation

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (14:38): Supplementary: will the minister undertake to double-check with his department that the information that was provided by SAPOL, which I have directly quoted today, is actually correct?

The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (14:38): I am more than happy to undertake to do that. I will formally take that on notice and I will undertake that question from SAPOL. Indeed, on a matter that is particularly topical, I will also undertake to brief the honourable member directly as soon as I get a report back outside of the normal formal process of taking a question on notice.
