R.A. SIMMS Legislative Council Age of Criminal Responsibility The Hon. R.A. SIMMS (14:47): Supplementary referring to the original answer: as part of the government assessing their position on this, will they commit to releasing the submissions that have been made to their discussion paper so that the community and members of parliament can help inform their views? The Hon. K.J. MAHER Legislative Council Minister for Aboriginal Affairs Attorney-General Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector Age of Criminal Responsibility The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (14:47): I thank the honourable member and I think he asked this as a substantive question in weeks gone by. We will continue to assess those. It is not routine practice that submissions are released. In fact, it is not infrequent that submissions are made to discussion papers the government releases where there is an expectation that, because of the nature of what people are submitting, privacy will be respected.
