1. Will funding be made available in 2006-07 and subsequent years to upgrade the buildings for the Supreme Court and the District Court?

2. What were the outcomes of the restorative justice trial program in the District Court?

The Hon. M.J. ATKINSON (Croydon—Attorney-General, Minister for Justice, Minister for Multicultural Affairs): I have been advised:

1. No funding was provided in the 2006-07 budget to upgrade the buildings for the Supreme Court and the District Court. This issue will be considered in future State Budgets.

2. There has been no trial program on restorative justice in the District Court.
