Will the Attorney consider consultation with perhaps either the District Court or the Chief Justice in order to determine what might be appropriate in this matter and similar related matters?</text>

MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (14:41):</by>  I will be very happy to follow that up. I have regular meetings with the heads of all the jurisdictions: the Chief Justice, who is in charge of the judiciary generally but also the Supreme Court, the Chief Judge of the District Court and the Chief Magistrate. At the next opportunity that I have with one of the heads of jurisdictions, I will raise that.</text>
