Police Disciplinary Tribunal

Mr KNOLL (Schubert) (15:09): A further supplementary: minister, will you be taking any action to look at remedies in relation to the accusations that the Police Ombudsman makes in relation to not being given access to Police Disciplinary Tribunal hearings?

The Hon. C.J. PICTON (Kaurna—Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety, Minister Assisting the Minister for Health, Minister Assisting the Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (15:09): I think as I have outlined in the previous two questions, I look forward to further investigating the comments that were made in the Acting Police Ombudsman's report to the parliament. Having only received it yesterday, I have read it but I have not had the opportunity to further discuss it with the Attorney-General, the Attorney-General's Department or the police commissioner, and I look forward to doing so.
