J.M.A. LENSINK Legislative Council Youth Crime The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (14:23): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking a question of the Attorney-General regarding youth crime. Leave granted. The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK Legislative Council The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK: In February, the Commissioner for Children and Young People released a paper entitled 'The need for rights-based reform of South Australia's child justice system'. In that paper she refers to the disproportionate criminalisation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, which is well known and as we have discussed in this chamber a number of times. My questions to the Attorney-General are: 1.	Has he met with the commissioner in relation to this report? 2.	Does he think that it is a fair characterisation in her report of the current situation? 3.	What outcomes have stemmed from any meetings he has had with the commissioner about systemic discrimination? The Hon. K.J.

I don't have any minutes or listed topics discussed, but I have had a number of meetings with the commissioner.
