EASLING, MR T.

The Hon. I.F. EVANS (Davenport) (15:08): Can the Minister for Families and Communities confirm that, at Tom Easling's first bail hearing on 2 August 2004, her department's Special Investigations Unit manager attended the court and, with the assistance of other departmental staff, proceeded to identify and write down the names of Mr Easling's supporters; and, on 4 August 2004, a Special Investigations Unit investigator made representations outside of his department to the Attorney-General's Department regarding the ongoing employment of one of Mr Easling's supporters, Audrey Stratton?

The Hon. J.M. RANKINE (Wright—Minister for Families and Communities, Minister for Northern Suburbs, Minister for Housing, Minister for Ageing, Minister for Disability) (15:09): No, I cannot. I understand the member for Davenport's interest in this matter. I understand that Mr Easling's lawyers have put a request to the Attorney-General to have the entire matter investigated, and I think the Attorney's officers are the appropriate people to deal with these questions.
