Domestic Violence

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (14:44): Supplementary: given the exact wording of the coronial investigation's recommendation is that they will have the 'privacy in an interview room' (those are the exact words), is the government prepared or has the government flagged that there will be any money provided for infrastructure improvements to the police stations in order that such an arrangement may be possible?

The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (14:44): I would like to thank the honourable member for that question. I haven't received such a request from SAPOL. Until I do receive such a request I can assume—and I will check for you and get back to you—that police are confident they can handle people's reports in private.
