BOURKE (Minister for Emergency Services and Correctional Services, Minister for Autism, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (14:26):</by>  As I said yesterday, an update was provided to the parliament yesterday to make clear the processes that were undertaken. We are apologetic for the steps that occurred, in the fact that we deeply regret the point that we were able to get to. We have said previously that this should not have happened and we know it should not have happened, but that is why we made that statement yesterday in the parliament as quickly as we could to update the parliament on the processes that were undertaken.</text>
