          <by role="member" id="5414">The Hon. I. PNEVMATIKOS:</by>  Last November, the state government signed a $1.1 million contract with WA-based company GenVis to create a home quarantine app. This is the same company that created a home quarantine app in WA that was described as having, and I quote, 'more bugs than a roach infection'. Reported problems with the app include facial recognition and the accuracy of GPS positioning. Since the contract was signed in November, there has been no sign of the app being released. My questions to the minister are:</text>
        <text id="20210218f26f164d4967470680000239">1.&amp;#x9;Does the app work?</text>
        <text id="20210218f26f164d4967470680000240">2.&amp;#x9;When will the app be released?</text>
        <text id="20210218f26f164d4967470680000241">3.&amp;#x9;What kind of external review or testing has the app been subjected to?</text>
