Safeguarding Taskforce

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:35): Supplementary arising from the original answer: apart from the minister's claim that there are gross inaccuracies in the reporting about the task force, what other inaccuracies is the minister referring to in how the media has reported this matter?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:36): I'm not quite sure what the honourable member wants me to do, to sit down and go through every transcript and say, 'That there, that was wrong. That there, that was wrong.' There has been a range of assumptions made in relation to this particular matter, and I think we need to be circumspect because there is a major crime investigation and because we don't want to prejudice the outcome of that.
