Domestic and Family Violence

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (14:45): My question is for the Minister for Police. Will the government engage with the non-government sector with a view to enabling non-government organisations in the family and domestic violence space to formally engage with the new MAPS framework?

The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (14:45): I thank the honourable member for his question. As the honourable member would be aware, the MAPS project is subject to review at the moment. That review, I understand, has been prepared in draft form. I have not seen the report yet, but it is going to the steering committee which oversights the project. I am not aware whether there is a recommendation or not; it may be a recommendation, but I am certainly happy to have those discussions in conjunction with what the report recommends.
