In reply to the Hon. T.A. FRANKS ().14 May 2024).

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector): The Minister for Arts has been advised:

The Office of the Registrar of Indigenous Corporation (ORIC) have been provided with documentation as requested as part of the investigation. ORIC are an independent statutory authority who are under no obligation to report on the progress of their investigations to external parties. Nonetheless, I can advise that ORIC have contacted the Department of the Premier and Cabinet (DPC) with a request to provide further detail and specifics, as a 'notice to produce' under s. 453-5(1) of the Corporations (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander) Act 2006.
